Dont quote me, but I think it was Chesterton who said, paraphrasing, Man has a God-shaped void that he tries to fill by earthly pursuits. Money, power, fame, material possessions, earthly pleasure of the flesh and on and on and on. But none can satisfy that desire to be reunited with your creator. As Solomon said, Vanity, vanity, all is vanity. Anyway, the point is that all mans overt actions, as illustrated in Genesis and throughout the Bible are an effort to restore that original communion with God.
