Some stones are older than others, and some have been softened by the flow
of water. Most stones are very heavy in their "natural" state, and this
alone requires our respect. [Metal is also heavy, but it starts as "stone,"
extracted by man.] Rocks are very hard, too, and break bones and shovels.
They also make for very stable foundation bearing, as Jesus advised. The
EPA has also advised us of the potential for granite-born radioactive Radon
gas in your basement... It's only a matter of time before Radon is
harnessed for burning in your microwave oven.
Souls Indeed,
DM
