Creature worship

In contrast with worship of a Creator deity, the theological term creature worship refers unflatteringly to veneration of that which is created.

Creature worship may include:

Animism
Cult of personality
Household deity
Idolatry

Less frequently, creature worship may be said to include:

Obsession with celebrity
Iconography
Narcissism

Racial supremacy
