“You shall not have other gods besides me. You shall not carve idols for yourselves… you shall not bow down before them or worship them.”

—Exodus 20:1-17

We literally have shows called “American Idol”. And everybody wants to be the next one.

Singers, actors, athletes, models, musicians, entertainers, or even just your garden-variety Instagram influencer.

Politicians and business leaders. Famous investors and VCs too.

Everyone’s looking for someone or something to worship and bow down to. Because clearly they must have the answers.

Do they?
