If you bow or kneel before it it is an idol.

It should be, but seems not.

If you bow or kneel before it it is an idol.

If you bow before a tree is it an idol? Why? If you have a kneeler in church and bow before a pew is it an idol?

You can try this yourself to test your answer:

Pick a lamp in your room, or pick a vase, coffee pot, whatever. Now face it and bow. Is it an idol for you now?
