Romans 1:19-23

19because what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.

20For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, because they are understood through what has been made. So people are without excuse.

21For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks, but they became futile in their thoughts and their senseless hearts were darkened.

22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools

23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an image resembling mortal human beings or birds or four-footed animals or reptiles.
