Existentialist Isaiah

2/8/2016

The man cuts down a tree.  With half the wood, he lights a fire, bakes bread and makes a roast, and he warms himself by the fire.  It feels good.  He says, “Ah.”  With the other half, he carves an idol, and worships it, “rescue me, for you are my god.”
Silly idolater.
