remove this post title, God is pure from anything you attribute to Him. God does not sleep. This is very offensive!

what he meant to say is god is fake, but god is also in the radio, checking the stations

Well it certainly is, Mondo!

Very cool.
Also, what the author says in the title is a poetic expression that means that the beauty of these minerals feels touched by divinity. No follower would be offended by this claim; religious works of all types claim in common that the Earth is of a deity’s making.

Paramahansa Yogananda frequently quoted the phrase, “God sleeps in the minerals, dreams in the flowers, awakens in the animals, and in man knows that He is awake”

You are loading the big images for this page, not small preview thumbnails. They have not finished loading and I came 2 minutes ago. Is wordpress really that bad or have you misconfigured something?

That said, the crystal with the cubes is awesome.

they sorta remind me of fungi in some weird way. they have the same capacity to be beautiful and intimidating at the same time, and i think it’s what makes nature as a whole awe-inspiring.
