You know how to tell if you’ve made an idol out of something? Just ask somebody who doesn’t think you should enjoy that thing, or who doesn’t like where you stand on that particular thing. They’ll be sure you’ve made an idol out of it. And I’m pretty sure that’s a solid, reliable judgment. I’ve found this works both with people you only know through social media and people you know casually in everyday life. The key, though, is that they have to think they know you better than they do. It helps if they think they’re especially good at reading other people’s hearts, too. And Charismatics that think they’re prophets? Always 100% accurate on this.
It really helps if they’ve found a website that will pay them money to write an article about it. Or, actually, the sense of power and glory that comes from it will do it.
If their party is out of power and they hate the guy your party has in office? Trust me, you’re an idolater. Anybody could see that.
