Creation, being regarded as an icon of the Creator, is a valid object of veneration.

Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or traditions:
“For a truly religious man nothing is tragic.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“I think a Person who is thus terrifyed [sic] with the Imagination of Ghosts and Spectres much more reasonable, than one who contrary to the Reports of all Historians sacred and profane, ancient and modern, and to the Traditions of all Nations, thinks the Appearance of Spirits fabulous and groundless.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
