Two evolutionary ways to build strong constructions - The shell construction and the skeleton construction		The construction of a house can be compared to the creation of a body. When we study how God created bodies of animals and how architects designed constructions of houses, we can discover a striking resemblance. When you make a house, or when God created a body, it is always necessary that such a house or body is constructed in strong ways. There are two different fundamental solutions to this problem.	Nov. 15, 1998
A home is more than a house		Most houses are built as constructions in which we can live. Not much thought is generally given to what a house could mean in terms of relation to the environment around it and the meaning of houses for the development of people as spiritual beings. A home is more than a house.	Feb.2, 2003
