Tradition


I never tire of this church Matthew

It is indeed beautiful Arabella

Like you

You flatter me Sir

Unlike this church

I have my imperfections

So does this church

It is not perfect

I cannot see the imperfection

It is in front of you

Look at the stairs

If you look closely

The final stair is erratic

Is this not part of the design

Or has a function unknown to me

There is no reason that these stairs

Should not be totally symmetrical

In theory they should be

Why should this happen Matthew

What is gained by this deception

The answer is easy

I think that you will agree

That God is great

I do

And that this church reflects his greatness

Yes

It is a tradition found in many churches

There is a small imperfection

It can be almost invisible

But it is there

The reason being that no man is perfect

And should not presume to be perfect

Our God is perfect

His churches no matter their beauty

Should reflect mans imperfections
