three big creation ideas
Hearing Bono talk about Psalms the other day, made me miss the Bible in a way. Yeah shocking. Truly. But after leaving Christianity and general religion, I feel like there is some freedom to approach the stories like I would any story and that can be, I say can be, kinda fun.
So, if you ask me, the creation story teaches us 3 things.
There’s something universal in the DNA of our reality that the human species needs another humans. It doesn’t work without relationship.
There’s something universal in the DNA of our reality that seeking knowledge is really really dangerous and can destroy us.
There’s something universal in the DNA of our reality that hiding our vulnerabilities and shame instead of opening up to other humans with it, and acknowledging it’s okay that we don’t know to other humans, is also very destructive.
