Does God really care?

Very much. Not because he needs our reverence or our sacrifices, but because we need to be reverent, and we need to sacrifice. Part of reverence, a sense of what's sacred, requires that we set aside things exclusively for worship. And part of worship requires that the material things we consecrate to God's glory reflect the beauty and preciousness of our own souls, which are made for him.

I agree with you however, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, hence we have problems!
