| | Do Catholics Worship the Sun? |
 | | The Church simply follows this biblical precident; she uses the sun as a symbol of the God Who is Light (1 John 1:5) without in any way promoting idolatrous worship of the yellow star at the center of our solar system. |  | | After all, they argue, Sunday means "the day of the sun"; the fact that the Catholic Church changed the day of rest from the God-ordained Sabbath to the day the pagans assigned to the sun surely must prove that Rome was replacing the true God with the sun as an object of worship. |  | | I've never heard a priest say that the sun is God, and never read anything of the sort in any papal encyclical, catechism, council document or theology text. |
