Elrond wasn't Catholic!?  :o  He sure as hell wasn't Southern Baptist. Because I never saw a single piece of Fried Chicken or Watermelon in all of Rivendale.

funny,  :DD

but technically she still always had prayed to Saint Anthony

i think as long as she thought that item represents for her that saints the wanted to address, there is no real fault
(could have also just had used a stone picked up at on a pilgrimage or some tree or places, whatever helps her to concentrate on her praying task)

actually any other officially sold Saint Anthony statuette is as fake as the plastic Elrond!
cause the early pictures from him are metaphoric inspired artist interpretations from the 16th century anyway. 

Would have been much more funny if she had actually thought a (Saint) Elrond;-) belongs somehow to the large and growing numbers of Catholic holy ones
