• We dare not trim stones to make God an altar, for if we do we ruin everything. We would spend time bringing people to the altar and saying, "Look at those beautiful stones we trimmed!"

The object of His restrictions is to help us see how wonderful He is and to spend the rest of our lives rendering true worship to Him.

In other words, it will be common or profane - just like everyone else's paganism.
