worship
Worship : The reverent love and devotion accorded a deity, an idol, or a sacred object.
​
Why do humans need to worship at all? Those who do worship others give their lives away, whether it be to god or oprah winfrey.

The most ridiculous concept ever perpetrated by H. sapiens is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of the Universes, wants the sacharrine adoration of his creations, that he can be persuaded by their prayers, and becomes petulant if he does not recieve this flattery. Yet this ridiculous notion, without one real shred of evidence to bolster it, has gone on to found one of the oldest, largest and least productive industries in history.
