SHEEP?
Sir,—Do your correspondents really believe that the Creator of the vast universe concerns Himself with the question whether Mary Smith of Christchurch is wearing lipstick and nail polish? Such a conception of the mind of God is both shallow and dangerous, leading as it does to an exaggerated view of the importance of superficial adornment, whether for
good or ill. If the Creator concerns Himself at all with the creatures who inhabit one of His planets, it is with their minds and hearts, not their conformity or otherwise to a currently prevailing fashion.—Yours, etc., GILD THE LILY. July 14, 1954.
