“The state is a deceptive dog; it likes to speak with smoke and roaring–to make believe that it speaks out of the belly of things. For it seeks by all means to be the most important beast on earth, the state; and people believe it too.”
–Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra
Yes, the state seeks worship. Those who see the state as the highest good are idolaters. All idols are destined for destruction. Along with those who worship them.
