This week's catechism questions reminds us of our human proclivity to create objects of veneration other than the true and living God. While it is easy for us to deride those who would worship a golden calf (historic idols) or an elephant god (non-western idols), the neon sign reminds us that we are quick to make, and justify, myriad idols of our own.
Q. 5. Are there more Gods than one?
A. There is but one only, the living and true God.
"Set your affection on things above, not on things upon the earth..." Colossians 3:2
