Tehological difficulty
Jan. 23rd, 2006 10:09 amI like the typo above so much, I'm keeping it. It perfectly describes my hopeful ignorance.
New Scientist quotes a display at the Creationist museum in Arkansaw, which shows Adam, Eve, and a vegetarian T. rex: "They lived together without fear, for there was no death yet."
What was God using for compost? I'm not being flippant: the more I think about it, the deeper this question becomes.
Lloyd mentioned that the doctrine of Original Sin was developed by St Augustine in the first century CE, which means it post-dates the story of the Fall by centuries. Again, I'm fascinated by the fact that religious ideas, even absolutely familiar ones, are innovations - someone has to think of them in the first place.
(As always, rude comments about the Bible and Christianity make me antsy, so please don't. :-)
