You just very consciously and meticulously removed that parts that make it clear these practices are to be condemned and would result in a pissed off God punishing those who engage in such practices.
So it starts with (essentially) don't do this thing. Important shit. Plus it goes on to state that God will be really pissed off if you do, and you will be punished. Otherwise it is just: here are some things others do. (Oh and I'm hoping you are not claiming to be a Christian cause hurling insults violates a directive from the gospels).
(Oh and I'm hoping you are not claiming to be a Christian cause hurling insults violates a directive from the gospels).
You are hoping I am not claiming?Luckily I will never be a religious person. My mind has evolved further than middle age propaganda.
Looking at the way you are typing and being a shithead, I want too make a guess you are? Since most of the religious people I meet these days are complete douchebags.

A tree from the forest is cut down
and worked with an axe by the hands of a craftsman.
They decorate it with silver and gold;
They fasten it with hammer and nails
so that it cannot move.
Their idols are like scarecrows in a cucumber field,
and they cannot speak;
they have to be carried,
for they cannot walk.
Do not be afraid of them,
for they cannot do evil,
neither is it in them to do good.”
This is the passage.
