"Because he showed them that they should not worship idols or things he created(sun etc), but instead the Creator."
Question - is idol/idle worship in the symbols we use or in the WAY in which we worship? If I and I see a tree, the sun, a plant, an animal, my fellow human being and see the Most High presence, is this idol worship? I would say absolutely not. I can learn about the ways of the natural laws by studying the creation - I can see the handiwork of the Creator behind everything the Almighty I creates.
