    Throwing rocks into an increasing pile and after each throw burning offerings to evaluate how much closer we are getting to having a cathedral.

    Possibly the worst way of building a cathedral, except it doesn’t really qualify as “building a cathedral”. Some workmen may take the pile of rocks and build an actual cathedral, but that doesn’t mean that the step of throwing rocks was necessary or desirable.
