If this brings comfort to somebody, all well and good. It enriches their lives and makes them feel better.
I don't have it in me to take that away from them.

Do I believe that picture? I have no idea.
Frankly the figure behind looks kinda creepy. Doesn't look holy at all, especially with that Reddish color. Isn't red supposed to be bad?

Any how, I hope the kid lives a long healthy life.
