"God likes matter. He invented it."

C.S. Lewis

I think Jack was right. God does like matter. So should we. The beauty of creation is testimony to the loving care God took to shape & form it.

However, I don't think God likes how we obsess over it. How we grovel and fawn over it, and generally act as though the entirety of our being were to obtain and increase our share of it.

That's a problem. We should consider stopping that part.
