reading biblical men
All of creation, in the biblical view, was to ultimately prepare the way for the creation of man. But one does not need the Bible alone to hold this view. A purely scientific reading of the universe is in keeping with this view. Everything - every natural and physical law - is exquisitely tuned to produce life, and ultimately man, on earth.

You don't have to signal a social conscience by looking like a frump.

Dread settled around me like a fog as the words burned into my brain: The Lake of Fire awaits my lady Alexandra Adornetto
