Dear Ismail, We worship the objects created by the GOD to show our respect towards the GOD. Just leave it to us as it not harmful to anybody else. This is much better than insulting GOD by killing other human beings on the name of the GOD.

HINDUISM IS A MONOTHEIST RELIGION, BUT IT IS HIJACKED BY MIS-INTERPRETING SAIINTS... THESE ARE THE REFERENCES FROM VEDAS..
"Ma cid anyad vi sansata sakhayo ma rishanyata" "O friends, do not worship anybody but Him, the Divine One. Praise Him alone." [Rigveda 8:1:1]10 "Devasya samituk parishtutih" "Verily, great is the glory of the Divine Creator." [Rigveda 5:1:81]11 Brahma Sutra of Hinduism: The Brahma Sutra of Hinduism is: "Ekam Brahm, dvitiya naste neh na naste kinchan" "There is only one God, not the second; not at all, not at all, not in the least bit." "Na tasya Pratima asti" "There is no image of Him." [Yajurveda 32:3] Yajurveda The following verses from the Yajurveda echo a similar concept of God: "na tasya pratima asti "There is no image of Him." [Yajurveda 32:3]5 "shudhama poapvidham" "He is bodyless and pure." [Yajurveda 40:8]6 "Andhatama pravishanti ye asambhuti mupaste" "They enter darkness, those who worship the natural elements" (Air, Water, Fire, etc.). "They sink deeper in darkness, those who worship sambhuti." [Yajurveda 40:9]7 Sambhuti means created things, for example table, chair, idol, etc.

Dear Gladiator/Ismail, Hiduism is like a ocean which absorbs different kind of thoughts without killing others. You can follow Hinduism irrespective of whether you believe in God or not. So whatever you have described is just one of the thoughts reflecting in Hindu religion. I am expecting more from you in this regard. The more you study about the Hinduism, you will becom more tolerant towards others & it will expand your vision of sight!

Good Gladiator. I appreciate your knowledge of Vedas. However, Srimad Bhagavadgita that is known as the Fifth Veda is not quoted by you. Let me say just one verse: "Yo Maam Pashyathi Sarvatra, sarvancha Mayi Pashyathi. Tasyaaham na Pranashyaami so cha me na Pranashyathi". He who sees me in everywhere will see me in everything. He will not be invisible to me, nor will I be invisible to him. Further I would like you to read the Tenth Chapter (Vibhuthi Yoga) where Lord has given example of several creatures, living and non-living in whom he exists.
So while you are right in whatever you have written, let us leave it to those who interpret the meaning and follow it according to their own beliefs.
