RE: The evolution of Adam - Sin and Entropy

in #religion7 years ago

Great explanation of "sin" @gavvet. I have really been enjoying your series and learning a lot.

This paragraph realy hit home for me.

"If we look at the commandments its not hard to notice that many of these things all warn against behaviors that will introduce a couple more degrees of disorder into our lives and that of the society or community in which we live and interact. Subsequently even though not obeying a set of commandments seems to provide us with greater freedom, ultimately it increases the disorder around us and allows chaos into or lives.

I can't help but relate to this quote here in backpacker Thailand. So many young travelers I've met who are atheist, and go by the Allister Crowly motto of "do as thou wilt" it creates quite a drama filled, drunken, irresponsible, drugged out, hedonistic environment that I either watch from the side lines or avoid all together. So many of them will proudly come out and say I'm "Atheist" Then arrogantly look at you like your an idiot if you have any other belief.

Their reckless behavior often leads to misery, STDs, broken hearts, fights, broken bones, and even death by being drunk and drowning or motorbike accidents. In your opinion is that a result of them turning their back on God, or God turning his back on them or something else all together? What do you think?

For me and my travels I can be a little antisocial when the company is out of control. I enjoy daytime activities. I enjoy seeing the immaculate creation all around. Today I visited four stunningly beautiful beaches here in Thailand. So stunning you can just feel that the creator has a hand in just about everything. Thanks for sharing. -Dan "World Travel Pro!"

Its simply the consequences of being in a state with higher degrees of freedom. If one never goes near the edge of a cliff it would take extraordinary circumstances to fall off the cliff.

But if you live on the edge most of the time, the chances of falling are vastly increased.

Now that's wisdom! Thanks! -Dan
