The funny thing is that seems to be what everyone does, it's just that most people aren't fiction writers so they don't come up with something so crazy and interesting.<br /><br />Think about an argument you've had with a theist. When was the last time you stumped them and they said "that is interesting, I'll have to read some scripture and get back to you" or "I'll talk to my pastor about that"? In my experience that never happens, they always make something up on the spot.Hausdorffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690401058367596952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5442584566219442310.post-32267698295199058072012-05-16T10:07:36.685-04:002012-05-16T10:07:36.685-04:00It's strange how people can believe parts of t...It's strange how people can believe parts of the Bible as fact and then write their own fan fiction (which they also believe is fact) to fill in the rest.Grundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07339125862340793733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5442584566219442310.post-11974007887446123162012-05-16T09:45:04.560-04:002012-05-16T09:45:04.560-04:00He talked about the fall in a previous chapter.

Basically it seems that his idea is that evolution happened, then at some point God came down and breathed souls into humans and then some version of the garden of Eden happened. It was actually a pretty interesting idea but it seems crazy to me for him to really believe it as it seems that he just made it up. I agree with you, it seems he spent too much time in his own fantasy worlds and at some point started believing in them.Hausdorffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690401058367596952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5442584566219442310.post-41686240711423083082012-05-16T09:08:09.995-04:002012-05-16T09:08:09.995-04:00I don't think there is a difference between co...I don't think there is a difference between consciousness and sentience.<br /><br />Animals were here long before man...so I guess he doesn't believe Genesis literally? But then what is "the fall?"<br /><br />"Perhaps Satan was there before humans got there and there was a different fall." So maybe a T-Rex ate from the tree of knowledge before man did?<br /><br />I think C.S. has been living in fantasy worlds too long.Grundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07339125862340793733noreply@blogger.com
