Origami and God's man

In her description of man, Mary Baker Eddy writes that man “is the compound idea of God, including all right ideas; …” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 475).

I like the all-inclusiveness and adaptability of this concept of many facets making up a whole. For instance, an invention comes about via inspiration and ideas, practice, knowledge of materials, construction, and design to make something practical or beautiful for daily use. 

In spiritual terms, man includes love, goodness, truth, strength, and so on. These qualities, when called on, are also practical (as Jesus so wonderfully illustrated) and beautiful.
