They do it because they have sin in them. There is sin in the world. Everything is cursed. Their hearts are not touched by God. A lot of people worship idols, not just heathens. Nice people and good people have idols too. They worship their jobs, their marriage, their kids, their relationships, their money, their car, their collections. If you want to know what someone's idol is, watch how they spend their time. We all sin, we all do different sins. We all fall short of the glory of God. We aren't perfect. People have been worshipping idols since the day of Moses, it's nothing new. It just our job to keep being an example of God's love and loving good people and bad people. Follow Jesus example, he hung out with lowly sinners.

Don't you understand, you don't know if god exists or created anything, and the 'heathens' are aware of it, thus they have a whole different set of beliefs. Can you not understand that if a person doesn't believe in god, they probably won't care about other precepts of the bible, such as how an idol you make with your own hands is related to their religion - to them, they see it just as you see your religious artifacts. Don't judge other people by your standards. That is wrong.

1. we were here way before you
2. At least we didn't steal sacred sites, ceremonies, and scripture from Egyptian cartouches (sorry about the spelling)
you are so closed minded its no wonder that Christians get a bad name with people like yourself around.
you should go read up on paganism, Wicca and the such before judging, I have Friends that I hang with of all religions from Buddhists to Christians, we never ever judge each other and accept each other for who we are. I may tease Christians a little but the majority are good people its only the fundamentalists which really gets my goat.
now I better be off my broomstick needs its M.O.T and my cauldron is over boiling
blessed be

even as guy executed information , say about ten thousand years in the past, guy also received the blueprints of language and faith and the concept of a unmarried God.people are born with in-built moral instructions, those provide the guidelines to a morally to blame existence even as living in among others people . The social structure of the people is in truth one reason that they are the dominant spices.The kinfolk being the construction stone of human civilization .the moral code it really is in-built does develop into distorted if the baby or newborn is abused or it deprived of love of close to ones.

All humans worship idols (in the East such idols can be statues; in the West, such idols are movie stars, or rock music stars, or basketball stars, or baseball stars, or career, or fame, or drugs, or sex, or job, or family).
Even Christians can worship idols if we are not careful (when we put our careers, or our relationships, or our families, or our hobbies ahead of God).

Many people from other faiths (and world-views) are commiting their lives to Christ. E.g., see

Excuse me, I don't worship Idols you butt head.
I Follow the gods that made the first man and woman ( Ask and Embla). The gods and goddesses of my ancestors, who were "worshipping" them 40,000 years before that shmuck Jesus came along. As for your MINOR desert storm god, he didn't Create ****. Its xians that are the "dumb" ones. You worship a god who's afraid to show him self, egotistical, and totally self-centered. You believe some schmuck who all himself to killed on a cross was the "son of your god"/ or god himself. You having to belittle other faiths to make you feel better shows me that you must your religion is just bullsh*t, and it is. So how about keeping your CULT to your self.

Hey - so called soldier of God - it's not very christian to call people dumb; that's just aggressive and arrogant; typical of one of God's soldiers. Soldier! So God sends you to war does he?
Anyway, the reason intelligent worship idols - as you put it - as opposed to an invisible dictator whose very existence is questionable is self evident.

I don't worship anything... not idols, not science, and certainly not your mythological deity. Go read your bible and leave the thinking adults to the more important things in life.
