Ephraim Ben Noach:
In my opinion this guy is making to big of a deal out of words, which both sides do! By twisting them into what they want. I can twist things too. G-D created everything! Soo, if I worship the dirt or a star, in all actuality I am worshiping G-d

 That is called IDOLATRY. (Your last statement).

  And this guy in the video is just reading the paper written (first link). The paper is mainly from the earlier Torah sages and books like Duties of the Heart, the Rambam, etc.

So,if I praise the sun and earth that G-d created, I'm committing idol worship? I'm not putting them before G-d, he created them! Maybe we are making this a little too complicated!

Tag-MehirTzedek:
This is what you wrote

 " Soo, if I worship the dirt or a star, in all actuality I am worshiping G-d"

 NO. One cannot worship dirt or a star. That is the definition of idolatry. And G-D's Oneness is not connected to His Creation. G-D created the star or the dirt, but that doesn't mean that G-D is in the dirt or sand, nor does it allow for any worship except for G-D.
