"Is the Tube Human? Semihuman? Well, uh, how human's
that, so forth. Are TV sets brought alive by
broadcast signals, like the clay bodies of men and
women animated by the spirit of God's love? Tre'd be
this parade of expert witnesses, professors, rabbis,
scientists, with Eddie Albert in an Emmy-nominated
cameo as the Pope...." (VL, Ch. 15, p. 348)
"clay bodies"
And formed Jehovah God the man dust from the soil, and
blew into his nostrils breath of life, and became the
man a living being. (Genesis II:7)
