Roman Catholics and other branches of Christianity have a concept of sainthood, where they bestow a status to someone based on posthumous miracles attributed to them. They also pray to them.
Generally in discussing Avodah Zarah or Shittuf issues with Christianity, the focus tends to be on their founding figure. But what is the status of things attributed to "saints," most specifically images or symbols of them?
Is this also regarded as an Avodah Zarah on equal status with, for example, a cross, or does it have some lesser status?
