Our bodies, our intellects, our minds, our talents, our fortunes are assigned to us by providence from the beginning of our birth. We praise a man saying that he is beautiful, but the beauty is not his but the manifestation of God?s own will. How then, can we ape over the beauty of mortals, when we should be exalting the beauty, the true beauty, of their creator, that benevolent immortal God? When we see a beautiful form or figure, it is not the beauty that resides within itself that we laud, but the hidden presence of God that calls us. And is it not true that when we are struck by the figure of a lustful attraction, our attraction is to the propogation of our species because God created Man and said, ?Behold, it is good?; because God from the heavens looked over the earth and announced, ?Be fruitful and multiply; I shall make you numerous, yes numerous, as the grains of sand that lie upon the shores?? Therefore it follows that bodies are neither ours to sell nor to praise, because they belong to God and our attainment of Him through their forms, various and diverse.
