"The passage in Romans refers to idolatry, which is forbidden even when well intentioned"
Thanks for your reply. If I'm not mistaken, there are some theological differences in the definition of idolatry (more studied people on FR can answer that, I'm sure).

No counting of pinhead-dancing angels is needed. Pray to an image, that's wrong. Allow an image to illustrate something about God, that's what happens all through the Bible.

Yes I suspect there are a few theological differences! That whole passage though reflects Paul's strong disinclination towards sensuality in matters of the spirit.
