we idolize people in this world who truly don’t deserve it. paris is thin and beautiful but the fat nurse that saves lives “cant take car of herself” so she doesn’t deserve our respect. idolization of appearance is killing our ability to understand others as people.
Carolynn
American I guess you could say. What a strange world that we live in where more people care about who votes for our next singing sensation than what happens to people being slaughtered all over the world. But I digress, or do I?
What is the state of this world? Internet porn, violence, pain. What does it all mean? Is it possible that we have raised a generation so callous that they care about nothing except where they are getting their next fix?
The golden calf did not work out so well in the Bible, nor will it work for us.
Q
I sit idly and ideally worship an idol of American politics. I can honestly say I handle idols quite well. Ideally the American idol idles along and fades away.
matthewbowser
what do you know about your idol? what is the truth? the ideal? where do the differences between you and them lie? Why aren’t you your own idol?
Jen
My idol has betrayed me. I’m lost, despondent, and unwilling to live, but too far gone to die.
James Colemann
the pattern of idolatry has followed humanity for all time, creating desperation for attention from things that have only come from the desperate imaginations. It is horrible to see the things that destroy us because of our lust for attention and it is humor to me.
Seymore
Now that the word being presented is one that has been used incorrectly before, we can take it a different direction. First, and foremost, an idol can be thought of as a being that is worshiped upon as something for a religious ritual. We are not sure when Idol’s or God’s or religious figures in general first started, but they seem to be dominant within most civilizations throughout both the world and through time.

Idols.
They’re not allowed here.
False truths
Lies
Broken promises
Prayers fall of death ears
Ears of gold and silver
But with no soul to filter
out the words
of the people
calling in vain
to them
Searching
For truth
For…security

There are many idols consider American idol. But the oringiinal context is maybe a graven image in the bible. However in modern usage it’s a person, such as a rock star, movie “idol”, or an exclamation such as “She’s my idol!’

apples are red as firetrucks, but not as loud! Bananas are yellow as the sun, but not as hot, oranges are orange as basketballs, but not as bouncey! I heart fruit!
Samantha
One person cannot be a perfect idol. All idols have flaws. This statement begs to ask what makes a difference between someone’s idol and just another person. Is there much of a difference?
Katie
My word for one word was idol
You are my idol
Sorry it’s not a story
It’s more like a statement…
Or a bunch of statements
Whose your idol?
I want to know.
Amanda
I don’t think I shall ever be anyones idol. What have I done to make others look up to me as their idol? Nothing. When I am gone I will just be that. . .gone.
Jena Derzi
american idol is probably the dumbest show on television. i hate the idolization of it, makes me want to gag myself in fact. our society should be more focused on important things, like feeding the hungry or some bull shitlike that. that show SUCKS and makes mme despise our culture.
alyssa
I don’t want to be an american idol. I don’t want to see an american idol. I don’t want to hear an american idol. They’re not an idol. They’re that annoying friend that won’t shut the hell up. Please, please, please just shut the hell up.
JMT
he was above all else. even suspicion and law. he was the idol of the nation and the jealously of those who didn’t know him. those that knew him hated him. he was arrogant and chauvinistic. he angered easily and forgave only if it would benefit him. he was the idol, but one who never deserved it.
carl shan
idol’s only create more dissapointment.. have goals, but dont get swallowed up in the acheivements of the lucky few

You were always my idol you know. I never questioned your reasoning or what your opionion was. I always trusted you, I still do for that matter. But sometimes I feel you slipping, stay strong. For me.

idol is interesting a person you want to be like admirer Justin Bieber.

Someone that makes a difference. Stands up for themselves. Dresses well. Makes music. Creates. Inspires. Stands apart from the crowd. Inspiration.

this is rediculous i have no idea what to write about, i am simply doing it out of curiosity. so anyways, whats up with this shit? is thirty seconds up yet? i feel lik its been so long already. ive typed up like a crap load of words, i must have a great amount of words per minute. i should look into this

he grabbed for the idol, grasping the heavy metal statue in his hand. “oh” he gasped as it began to slip away from his grasp. “NOOOO” he screamed as it fell from his exhausted hands. The gold statue fell all the way down the podium and away from his grasp. He sought to scramble after it but failed. It had rolled where he’d never reach it! So far away he couldn’t and wouldn’t ever find it.
Em
The idol felt like a frozen totem pole inside the cold,noisy room, but a hush came over the public when he opened his mouth to speak. Thank you for visiting your dream of who I am, but would someone, please, bring a heater here before I start to cough?

american idol. paula abdul. simon is an asshole, but he’s always correct. randy is funny. it makes me think of kris allen, cause he’s so hot. and the movie house bunny, when the guy asked who she was voting for and she thought he meant for idol. but he was really talking about the president. paula is leaving idol this season, and i really hope a hot guy wins..
Brittany Higginbotham
you are my idol. i look up to you for inspiration. when i drive in my car and a sappy song plays, i think about you and i cry a little bit. you are always there, even when youre not. i strive to be everywhere and in one place just like you.

Billy Idol sings one of the songs of my life-White Wedding. I don’t know what it is about the song…maybe it makes me want to start again. It’s a nice day for a white wedding.
Jessica Luna
He is one..she is one. They are lost. They find this, one binding thing that they worship. Not spiritual. Not unconditional but they need it. Music is one. So is this. We worship it. Media-idol.

zack. yeah, idol = zack. he is beautiful and he treats me ever so well and i just don’t know what i would have done all of this time without him. i find myself modeling myself after him and he motivates me and i know where i want to go to college because of him and he’s actually beautiful and we think so much alike and i’m so glad that he’s in my life… zack.

Idol.
That which we love, and that inspires us. If we look to an idol, it can cause us to dream, to dicover what we ourselves would like to achieve. Our horizons are expanded by such admiration.
An idol can also be a trap. That person can do what I cannot. Then envy sets in and becomes a deterrent to our own unfolding potential.
All in all, we need idols. The law of reflection will see that something gets realized.

American idol is a symbol of the dying state of intellectuals in America. That the most watched television show in the country is about voting who is the best singer just says that our world is doomed. 2012 can’t come quick enough! I really hope that Clay Aiken suicide bombs the next season.

American Idol. Sadly, this is the first thing that comes to mind when i see the word “idol.” How true to the fact that our lives are truly taken over by outside sources- the media, the internet, celebrities, etc. If only I first thought of MY idols- all the people who are able to get away from all the media.

My idol is my mother. She has taught me so much about my life over the course of several years. Even from a young age she was instilling her knowledge upon me. I wish I could adequately express my appreciation for he contribution to my current intelligence. I love you, mom. You mean the world to me. I hope you are always with me.
