The Fall of Eden

Cross-posted from a comment on another blog...

Well, see, the idea of Holy Spirit DNA is a fundamentally Christian idea; whereas the Book of Genesis and the story of Eden is a fundamentally Jewish train of thought: “Eh, sonny? You want to know why there’s evil in the world? You know, once upon a time there wasn’t. The world was perfect, a beautiful garden where everything alive had everything it needed and everything could live forever. But then the Lord, he got lonely and he went and made people. And people, even in a place like that… well, it lasted ’em a few days, I’ll admit, but they took that perfect garden and they broke it. Oy. People. Still, what’re you gonna do about it? Drown them all in a worldwide flood?”
