Well, if you don’t see a difference between actively engaging in avodah zarah and encouraging people to do it on the one hand, and on the other hand spending money on supporting limud Torah – to even a small extent- while neither encouraging nor discouraging people from doing what they want within the law, where the alternative to frumkeit isn’t avodah zara, but rather apathy and doing little or nothing of ANY religious nature, so be it. But I see the differences as obvious and major.
