You worship your intellect and reasoning capacity. You make yourself a god.

Didn't God give us our intellect and our ability to reason? If so, by exercising those abilities, are we not doing exactly what God wants us to do? If not, why did he give those abilities to us?

Yes God does give us understanding and reasoning and intellect but he clearly advises us to "lean not unto thine own understanding but on every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."

Yes He did....but NOT to worship ourselves, but to bring glory and honor to Him.
