Bowing down to money is like bowing down to a fictitious God

That’s not the line. In KJV it goes:

For the love of money is the root of all evil

It’s not the money itself, it’s the love of money.

Bible Gateway passage: 1 Timothy 6:10 - King James Version

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

You’re right about the phrase, but I also disagree and think it’s money itself
We need money. It's a neutral tool. Also, love in this usage seems to mean "lust."
