Strangely and without spiritual cognizance, their posture can echo belonging to Holy God in that same vein. The superficial theorizing from many would more contemplate an idol as a person greatly appreciated or some kind of token, but the actuality is more a soulful positioning that promotes (i.e. defends) their belief regarding this person or thing as most effective in creating solace for their lives (cf.
