Psalm 96

The comparison in verse 5 is a little confusing. The LORD created the majestic splendor of the heavens. But there is no creativity attributed to idols. If the focus of the contrast is creativity then how do idol come into the comparison? I think that the connection is that idols are created as well.  But their creators are sin filled humans. People who are looking to tame God create gods that they think they can understand. In the end what we create fails to explain anything except the weakness of our creativity.
