    Because the catholic church has the pope so what he says can overrule whats in the Bible because his world is supposed to be infallable. I guess a long time ago the pope at the time allowed people to do it. Remember that the roman catholic church was adapted to suit the romans of the time who used to worhip icons and worshipped many Gods in their pagan religion.
