Creation Moment 11/6/2019 - We Already Have A Ritual

Speaking of the Creation - we already have a RITUAL - Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God:
Exodus 20:8,10

"Carl Sagan’s daughter picks up where her dad left off, adding an unexpected twist for creatures on a pale blue dot.

Space.com reviewed Sasha Sagan’s new book, For Small Creatures Such As We. Basically, Carl Sagan’s daughter thinks that since humans evolved to be ritualistic, we should come up with some secular rituals that atheists can enjoy during their brief, meaningless lives on a speck orbiting a speck in a speckless universe.

Reviewer Chelsea Gohd sums it up in her subtitle: “People are born and people die. We’ve all got to get through it one way or another.”

“For Small Creatures Such as We” (G.P Putnam’s Sons, 2019), Sagan’s new book pays homage to her late father, the astronomer and science communicator Carl Sagan (whose famous quote from “Contact” inspired the title of the book), and her mother, “Cosmos” co-writer Ann Druyan, while finding traditions and inspiration in the natural world.
After becoming a mother, Sagan, who is nonreligious but who has a Jewish background and a husband with a Christian background, realized the importance of having rituals with her own family. But, being secular, she didn’t want to draw on religion to inform their family traditions. Instead, as she explores in the book, Sagan looks to the beauty and “magic” of nature, on our planet and out in the cosmos, to inspire ritual and togetherness in her home.

Sasha Sagan advises setting up “secular traditions” that might kindle “wonderment” for families.
 But can atheists really conjure up awe out of materialism?"
