Interesting blurb on the subject of idolatry

I sat down this morning to finally catch up on the latest issue of Touchstone Magazine and found this little blurb by Peter Leithart in the Quodlibet section that I thought coincided with what Lutzer is discussing Ten Lies About God.

Leithart says -

"The other day, the Dow went above 8000 for the first time in months. I've got almost nothing invested, but my first thought was, 'Whew! We're going to be okay.'
My second thought was a self-castigating one: What is it but idolatry of mammon to feel relief and hope at a 100-point rise in the Dow? Have I been so deeply corrupted that I put my hope in a purely nominal increase in value? Have I been so thoroughly taken in by the evangelists of mammon that we call our "major media"?
