the.com/worshipper

Someone who found the one thing bigger than their own ego and knelt anyway.

means A person who reveres or devotedly honors someone or something, often through ritual acts like prayer or attendance at worship.

from From Old English 'weorthscipe' — 'worth' (value, worthiness) plus the suffix '-scipe' (state or condition, the ancestor of '-ship'). So a worshipper is literally one who ascribes worth-ship to something: an act of assigning ultimate value, then bowing before it.

etymology
from worth plus scipe, literally worth-ship
not passive
original meaning implied active service, not just awe
modern drift
now used loosely for fans, stans, and devotees alike
paradox
requires humility, yet chooses what to glorify
