Did idol worship go out with the Stone Age?

Rabbi Manis Friedman lists examples of 3 modern idols that have replaced the ancient idols of stone and wood. We put our trust in these false gods, thinking they are the solution to everything, sacrifycing our time, money and lives to them. The first idol on his list is Love. Rabbi Friedman describes how to love without falling into idol worship. Love should be an emotional response to something that is valuable, virtuous, and important to you, rather than the idol of love which is the emotion creating the relationship.
