Why we practice non-idolatry
We practice non-idolatry. A synonym for this is iconoclasm. We express our attitude toward values in general by saying that they are all trumped by Abba. What does this mean? From whence do we get any inkling of what it might mean to say Abba is the value above all others? The answer is that this is so because we know it to be so. It is like mathematics which is not made up by individuals but is rather the product of logic. Logic is the handmaiden of Abba. Logic is why persons like Einstein were fundamentally spiritual because of the reality they encountered as scientists. Science creates non-idolatrous iconoclasts. This is the first step toward realizing the human value system.
