Idols - Good Or Bad ???

If you recall, the world went into a tizzy when the Taliban destroyed these giant Buddha statues in Afghanistan:



Were these statues idols, or were they art? Were the Taliban doing G-d's will, or just being vandals? Here's something the Bible has to say on the issue:

And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
1 Kings 15:12 KJV

The only people in the US who even come CLOSE to living the life urged upon us by the Bible are the Amish.

We need to ask ourselves - are we fighting the Taliban because they are evil, or because they truly believe in G-d and want to follow His commandments - something we in the US increasingly no longer wish to do?
