Homemade ice cream from Sick Science! A perfect DIY for a long weekend…
Makes sense.
The skewed viewpoint. The mocking tone.
Yet God did not create humans with original sin. “Adam” and “Eve” chose to sin. You know, the whole “tree of the knowledge of good and evil” and the “apple”? The one tree they were supposed to not eat of. One simple rule was all they had.
But then, why did God put the tree in the garden in the first place? Why even allow the temptation in the first place? (Hmm. Have you watched Biggest Loser?)
Obviously, this is presented as literal translation of Genesis 2 because that’s all I have.
… .
And yet, Christian theology says that obviously God expected that “Adam” and “Eve” would sin, so perhaps that is accurate?
Still my views of God’s omniscience and human freedom of choice says that God knew all the options, whether “Adam” and “Eve” chose to eat the “apple” or not.
Maybe that’s an alternate universe we have yet to find.

Not fond of the “Belief-o-matic” name, but whatever.
I’d be interested to see what usgroovykids gets. And you, too.
I’m somehow either Seventh Day Adventist (100%? How?) or Orthodox Quaker. Maybe Eastern Orthodox. I’m not sure I agree with that, although I kinda like the Orthodox Quaker designation. I thought I’d be one of these guys.
