An analogy of Worship.

Alright. Imagine this. You are in the middle of a war and you hear shots and bombings everywhere. You go to the best place where cover is. You sit there. Waiting for an opportunity to come out and shoot somebody or move somewhere else so you can advance. The time comes. You sneak your head out a little bit. You see enemies running across the battle field. You go to aim and shoot. You pull the trigger...Click. "What happened?" you think. Then you remember that you have the safety on. You turn it on. So you aim again and shoot. You pull the trigger...Bang!...Bang!...Bang!!.."Why can't I shoot these guys?" You say angrily. And you remember, you didn't pay much attention to the marksmanship course. You really shouldn't have gone, but they let you since you wanted to. They are shooting at you now because they know where you are at. You, in a very frightful manner, jump up and run behind something bigger than where you are now. Bullets wizz past your head and legs as you are trying to take cover. DING!!...They hit your helmet, luckily the bullet doesn't go through. You are behind this rock. You look over and see that they are pretty close to you and you start shooting but they are shooting too while running at you. Finally you hit one...In the knee. You pretty much immobilized that enemy. You punch out some more rounds...Bang! Bang! Bang! Cick!! "What now?!" Oh yeah! I have to reload now! CRAP!! So you duck behind the rock and start reloading having trouble because you didn't pay much attention to your weapons training. So it takes you a little bit longer. Finally you got it. You look over and they are now only 20ft away from you reloading at the same time you did. Dang it!! "What am I going to do?" You don't have much time to think, so the only thing you got is a full clip of ammunition and a few enemies coming at you. So you peek your gun out with the least possible flesh in the open and start firing. Unfortunately you forgot the whole time about the grenades you have because you weren't trained enough to stay calm during battle, so that was an opportunity missed. You keep shooting but they are shooting right back knocking off part of the rock each time..Going fast. You've shot down maybe three by now because you suck at it. They get so much rock out of the way that your head, that is exposed from the missing helmet, is popped into sight. Again, you weren't trained to stay calm and therefore get your helmet. Everything's going so fast you don't know what to do and then...Thump! You are on your butt with a shot in the face OW!! You are pretty much not moving though you are still alive. From your pain you forgot about the grenades again and didn't throw one not caring if it'll kill you too. And then death comes. You believe worship is warfare, so treat it like it is.
