golden idols displaced me - dickens presents the idea tht scrooges inclination towards money over rs has damaged his opportunity to kindle love and start his own family. . come to realisation tht family is more important than money
"another idol has displaced me. A golden one"
Belle breaks off the engagement. feels scrooge values money moer than her
scared of losing money so loses evrything else - primary affection on moneu replaced and broke scrooge .
Scrooge prioritised money over his own relationship, and loved wealth more than the women he fell in love with
His biggest regret is likely his relationship with Belle- he drove way a young woman who wouldve been his lifelong companion and enriched his life w/ love: a far greater wealth than money.
noun 'idol' - Belle believes Scrooge is so enamoured of money that he worships it. dickens makes bell characterise scrooge , not just as a miser hoarding money , but uses religious imagery to show scrooge is worshipping false idols rather than just money - emph how corrupt/greedy he is
dickens suggests , thru his adoration of a false god, hes no longer a good christian. In Victorian times, most readers christ = additional judgement on Scrooge who needs to repent
