What is the signifigance of the hand?

I thought about trying to make some kind of high-browed response to this
question, but the truth is, I don't really know. I have always been fascinated
by hands, drawing them over and over when I was a kid, and now I collect hand
sculptures and jewelry with hands...but I don't know why they are significant to
me. They just are :) After I was done building, it occured to me that minifigs
don't have hands and it was kinda weird to put hand symbols in the MOC, but I
went with it anyway.

Although minifigs themselves don't have hands, there are some in minifigdom who
have come to believe in a mysterious force that they call "the hand."  They
claim this force "moves them."  They believe this power is evident in everything
around them - indeed - some believe the world itself was created by an enormous
pair of hands reaching down into the primordial part bins out of which
everything was created.

Thomas,

I see you've studied minifig theology too.
