We see the symbolism of various gods in our everyday life, that have become normal and routine, but the spiritual nature of these symbols, and the ungodly element that created them is still at their core. So, when we promote this symbolism through what we allow into our homes and lives, we are in essence promoting the Enemy, and giving him status above anything Godly that we have. This is a simple comparison of the Roman/Greek gods that were hindrances to God's people all throughout Scripture, and continues to do the same today.
