Religion is often associated with superstition because it puts intangible reality first. Yet to put material objects first is to go** down **in the world - as if you get a better view in a submarine or a subterranean vault! The substitution of matter for God is a clear case of substition. 🙂

Don’t you think it is far more reasonable to interpret existence in terms of what is most precious rather than the dust under our feet?

“Where your heart is, there is your treasure” - paraphrase of JESUS teaching us that we already do this.
