Life Without Art...

I remember in class last time that there was the mention of what would Christianity would be like without the presence of art? Will it be bland? Boring? Enclosed? Well, to me, I think it would be very bland, lifeless, and nearly secluded to the world. Mainly because there wouldn't be anything to look forward to and it really wouldn't be easy to symbolize the faith like we do today.

For example, there really wouldn't be any kind of mystery in our faith. Nor creation. Nor Symbols. It would be very boring and dead in my eyes. Art is something that provides us to be able to see things that we wouldn't normally see in regular text. Like the beauty behind the tree analogy in the last times reading assignment. It was something more than a tree to the author than the carpenter who wanted to chop it down. Plus art is also the way we kind of test ourselves, how we are able to see if we can question ourselves. To be honest, I think sometimes art is just a slap in the face to those who are certain about things. All in all, art provides us to reach past our limits and find things that you couldn't normally find in regular text.
