Idols have noses but they cannot smell anything. This statement
makes me sad for the idol worshippers. God says that the incense of our Prayers
even reaches to Heaven. He loves to smell that incense. The idol worshippers
sometimes make some very nice smelling offerings to their idols, I do not
dislike those smells but the sad point is that the idols cannot smell them.
