the fish is not worshipped, it is not an idol. There is history to this symbol. When it was illegal to discuss Jesus a Christian man would draw half the fish on the ground with a stick, if the other man was a Christian he would complete the fish then the two could safely discuss Christianity.
I don't have one on my car. I am sure some are doing at as a form of virtue signaling, others may be using it to spread the word or show other Christians they are not alone. I think it is dangerous to judge another man's heart. I assume you believe the cross is an idol as well as any artistic rendering of Jesus. I don't agree that we are worshipping the fish or the cross, I don't need them in order to pray. My teenage son has a cross on a necklace, he is not worshipping it, does he need it, no of course not. However, I am happy he is not ashamed of his Christian faith, especially in this day and age of hedonism.
Further we speak a different language than Jesus did, I don't believe God is concerned with how we pronounce his name. His concern is if we know him and our concern should be if he knows us.
I don't expect you to agree, just giving you my opinions on the matter. I believe we are all sinners and God is forgiving of this.
A legalistic and unforgiving God would mean 99% or more of us will be separated from him upon death. When I pray, when I feel the presence of God I feel love and fogiveness and I am very far from perfect.
All Christians worship a false idol.
The version of Jesus comes from Pagan Rome.
a good read on authenticity of The New Testament.

The problem is Christians don't regard it as such and for the past 1700 years made up countless doctrines that have no biblical basis.
Sure there are many apostate churches. Your phrasing above reads more like you don't believe Jesus Christ from the New Testament is the Messiah. It sounds like that wasn't your intention.
If you mean many that call themselves Christians worship a false God (ie gay flags on a church sign (a church near me has one), then I am right there with you. Not that you care about downvotes, but if this is what you meant you would not have gotten the downvotes here.
But, you stated "All" Christians worship a false God. Which includes many of us that base our faith and beliefs on the Bible.
