Maybe, but it is your choice.

as long as you believe in a higher power you are alright why do you worship Martin Luther king? You can believe in his values but having an idol thats not considered a god could harm you

The word worship always threw me. For the lack of a better word I will use Respect, which is very close to love. Why not respect all of those names or former beings? They are of a realm that is due respect by many. You are not alone, as it were many are torn in religious beliefs, and yet we know that there is one source of spiritual power and it is within us and if you feel strength and love in your heart by doing this by all means do it and dont worry. It is your personal business what and who you believe in anyway.

There are people throughout the world who take the best; in their opinions; of every religion and incorporate these teachings into their own way of looking at life and religion in general. These people are known as Sufi's. And for the most part I think(in my opinion)that they have the right of it. Where one religion is better than others doesn't come into the equation. They just follow their own interpretations of what they believe and that seems to satisfy them and me.

I don't know about Worship. But each of them taught Love and deserves respect. You can certainly study their teachings and base your life on them. Can't go wrong with that. God said Have no other gods before me, so I think he expects us to worship Him as the only God. Peace and Love.

You can worship a porcelain toilet if you want. Worship in and of itself has no effect on your afterlife.

Yep it's a good assumption that this would be bad for your afterlife.

Yes you can. It is called being polytheistic. Have fun going to Church, temple and ummm I guess civil rights marches....
