Subject: Would Adam and Eve have fallen? |
Bible Note: ebrain - My words of support, you say? Support? I suppose the irony in my remarks about your speculation got lost in translation. I wrote it inAmerican English and you read it in British English. ...... Sir, what I wrote was not intended to lend encouragement to your musings and free-wheeling verbal meaneerings. On the contrary, it was pure satire. Frankly I was poking fun at your flights of fancy, not praising them. I had rather hoped that my post would dispel your reveries and serve to jar you back on the track of orthodoxy. not egg you on to play more games of "Let's Pretend." ...... I'll pass on the question you posed to me. Though I'm getting on in years, I don't have the distinction of having known Adam personally, so I really have no idea of what image of God Adam gave. ..... I take issue, by the way, with your presentation (in another post) of speculation as having the fine attributes you assign to it. From speculation to theological nonsense is a very short path and a virtually certain one. I've been able to avoid speculation to some extent by making myself a promise that I will hold off on speculating about what the Bible doesn't make clear until I master all tha things that the Bible does not make clear. It works for me. Why don't you try it sometime? --Hank |
