Shalom!
Ten years ago, long before I became a Noahide I bought a statue made of stone on a trip to India. It is not 3D as the back is flat. But... I asked (two times) when I bought it if it was a god and the answer was that it was a "half-god". I think it might have been manufactured for religious use (prayers) even if it is not 3D.
I have never had any religious thoughts about it and I will never pray to that object. To me it is art, but I have put it in a box where nobody see it as I do not wan't anyone to think I am a idolator and I do not want to inspire anyone to idoltry.
Should I get rid of that beautifull statue?
