Name feels negatively biased against these practices Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 07:09, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that in a Jewish/Christian/Muslim context, the word 'idolatrous' tends to be negatively judgmental. I suggest Religious procession with idols; specifying 'religious' could seem awkward, but it may avoid confusion with Korean pop stars. -- Verbarson  talkedits 08:28, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Verbarson I think that would be a better term and more descriptive too. Since it explicitly mentions the idols as physical objects instead of implying their existence. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (please tag me) 13:04, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Immanuelle I disagree that the word has negative connotations. I just think of it as a word that's often used in a religious sense. And I got married in a Catholic church... David10244 (talk) 11:29, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
