i understand the point, but every act represents christianity sin or not... that is why there is a name for such acts.

Christians do not get their faith from relics but from a relationship with Christ and His Word.
ok, what is the bible then? it is nothing more then a relic yet you cling to that as "faith" and its ok...? kinda sounds like your picking and choosing now.
