Remember when God said he didn’t want idols made, then he punished the Jews to wander the desert for 40 years.

You are about 1700 years late to this argument. Christians reconciled with iconography some time in the Byzantium Era.

And after Protestantism? FFS, can you imagine what Joseph Smith would say about an AI Prophet, after spending half his career reading discs out of a hat with special sunglasses?

Ah. Hence the age old adage: "Don't be fooled by the rocks that I got".
