I don't see any cogent explanation for why it is desirable to worship tools and weapons. Strange reasoning

  In Abrahamic religions it is common I believe to say thank you to God before a meal. This is a key difference between these religions and religions like Hinduism. The thanks is to the object that has helped us in anyway. This stems from the base of Nature/Environment worship that religions like Hinduism are derived from. All things in the Universe are seen as a manifestation of God or Parmatma (Supreme life force) than God as a third entity. As to whether it is useful, it is upto each individual to decide for themselves. Note: I am a practicing Hindu and we just finished this ritual at home last week, including saying thanks to my Laptop :-)
