Come on we all do it. We all think it is hilarious. I mean really. Are they stupid? Maybe being stupid has nothing to do with it. But they are definitely naïve. Who else would do that but some naïve unsophisticated untouched by civilization jungle/island dweller?? I mean they do know that it's just stone? They do know that their little stone idol doesn’t answer their prayers? It is just downright silly.
amirightoramiright?
But don’t we do the same when we eschew what is written in the bible about God and in its place erect our own beliefs? Do we not ascribe attributes and attitudes to little pet idols of our own making? Of course most of us do not chisel or carve little figurines but are we doing anything different than our naive” brethren?
When we declare that god will see that I am a good person and I need not to worry about getting into heaven. *carve carve carve* When you declare that you don’t need to go to church, that god knows your heart. *whittle whittle whittle* When you claim to have said a prayer one time and thus you are “good to go with God”. *clink clink clink*
The Christian God is…….who He is. He will be worshiped in the way he prescribes, He will be followed in the way he prescribes, and He will be approached in the way he prescribes.If following Christ, going to church, reading the scriptures to find out just what the true God demands does not appeal to you, then carve away. But hold no illusions that you a child of God.

Because, knowing God, they did not glorify Him as God, neither were thankful. But they became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing to be wise, they became fools and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.
Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their hearts, to
dishonor their own bodies between themselves.
For they changed the truth of God into a lie, and they worshiped and served the created thing more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. – Romans 1:21-25
