Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?   Tell me, if you understand.  Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!   Who stretched a measuring line across it?  On what were its footings set,  or who laid its cornerstone-  while the morning stars sang together  And all the angels shouted for joy?  Job 38:4-7

A religion without the element of mystery would not be a religion at all.  Edwin Lewis
