What a strange thing
How very strange that those who claim to be wise, somehow find it neccessary to pray to things of wood in order to "Reach God". As if God needs a mere symbol of that which is persihable, to reach that which is eternal.
Mankind has always done these things, from Stonehenge to reading the entrails of pigeons, mankind (that's us) has always felt the need to create something in the physical to try and reach that which is spiritual.
In the words of Paul in Acts 18.27 "That they should seek God, and perhaps grope after him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us 28 for in him we live and move and have our being...........29 If therefore we are the offspring of God, we ought not to imagine that the Divinity is like to gold or silver or stone to a image graven graven by human art or thought.
