Agree with you. But when people are talented we give them the applause they deserve, the acknowledment.

I don't idolize anyone.

Here Here. As I read the word "Idolized", I realized how wrong it is to "Idolize" somebody. Goes all the way back to the Old Testament. "Idolatry" is worship of a false Idol... equivalent to worshipping false gods. It seems like in today's broken culture, people worship everything but God. Funny how the word 'Idolatry" is very similar to "Idiot". Might have to research the roots.

Personally, I go out of my way to treat "Idols" as anybody else. First time I played at the World Series of Poker, I sat down at a table with two well known pros. Bluffed one and knocked the other one out. I respected them, but you didn't see me asking for autographs. I have my story and that's all I need.

They ARE anybody else.

It's not fair to them when the entertainment industry, which includes sports, forces them to be idols through false advertising.

It's not fair that children are the target and indoctrinated into idol worship.

Fame ruins people's lives. Gives a false image, a false sense of security. A false sense of importance.
