If you are a liberal Christian what do you believe constitutes idolatry?
Do you believe that worshipping say, Hindu deities and images that are considered literal embodiments of gods are acts of idolatry? Or do you reinterpret those concepts and take such scriptural prohibitions with a grain of salt?
I am asking because I am interested in how taking a pluralist approach to religions as some liberal Christians do affects your concept of idolatry.
