And what is wrong with finding holiness in a lump of coal? I think if anything can be holy, everything can be holy -- everything is, after all, connected -- and a lump of coal is no less part of the universe than a cockroach, a supernova, or a human.

Also, please note the extreme Western Christian-centric POV of that quote: God is 'him,' God is singular, God is, above all, specific. Those are assumptions that not everyone shares! And if you are defining religion on the basis of those assumptions, you are naturally going to annoy and offend people whose beliefs, practices, ideas, values, etcetera, you are lumping in with that modern Western Christian-centric outlook.
