I fear the truth is exactly that!
It is in our nature to worship, to exhault, it is written in our way of being and if we do not assign that necessity to the highest, then we make gods of something else, for some it becomes money or work, perhaps politics or sexual partners or intoxicating substances. The worst offenders end up following the path of Lucifer/Iblis and worship themselves at the expense of everyone else around them.

"One of the peculiar sins of the twentieth century which we've developed to a very high level is the sin of credulity. It has been said that when human beings stop believing in God they believe in nothing. The truth is much worse: they believe in anything."
–Malcolm Muggeridge
Muggeridge Through the Microphone (1967)
