Creation and Evolution
So, I went on that ... dare I say... date with Mr. B.J. I so enjoy his company. We first headed for a cuppa, then for some fingerfood and drinks at The Bight - just outside on the patio overlooking the sea and the boats and the scenic... *hehe*... oil rigs.
Oh, and the dinner on Friday... jeez an' ages... crab backs and coconut shrimp in tamarind and plum sauce. Woof! ZuperZcrum-shus!
Mr. B. always fascinated me... I dunno... though he's not a Christian, he's the best Christian I know. Yep - he lives a Christian life (the real kinda logical one - not the "religious spirited" one), though he doesn't know it. He always had a mind and - perhaps - heart of a great wise man. Of course, in keeping with that, he doesn't think so at all, and is one of the most humble people. I even remember him, especially at school, really beating down on himself (not externally, though... he's very introverted in his behaviour) for very simple and tiny errors... of course that being the very reason he'd get down on himself.
He really hasn't changed much... still simple, still great. I think it shocked me more that it shocked him that I could actually follow just a tip-of-the-iceberg amount of the "math terms" he threw at me... Cauchy and Riemann, you made me look good.
Then, of course, we talked about Christianity... the boy seemed so relieved that I wasn't a "there is no other book than the Bible!" sorta follower of Christ. It's kinda bad, though, that he did think I was like that all this time! It finally hit him, though, when we were talking about the great book - The Final Quest - and the visions the man had had... he turned to me:
One question... *B.'s serious face*... was he on acid?
Well, I couldn't help but giggle... kinda caught me off-guard.
Hehe... well, who knows - perhaps. And - let me just say - thank God for his acid usage cuz I got a great message out of it!
He so didn't expect that response, apparently... he even said he thought I'd be all "What?!?! Never! No way!!".
Anyways, so we talked about Creation vs. Evolution... and the combination therein *what's it called again, B?* I really am not well read on this, though... so again me feels like a mocks. Hehe...
You know, when you think about it, we were all basically trained to think like evolutionists (like, we grew up learning that - basically - everything operated as we view it today - geological and biological stuff-wise)... however, even though the Bible sorta teaches "differently", religious beliefs still reign. So, I guess it would make sense to combine the two... I just never really thought about it (my belief in God's creation is too strong to just give up and believe in evolution soley) nor read about it... B and K always have some zuperkuhl issues and ideas.
Other than that, I ate like a pig all weekend long (thanks Suz!), went to Church and laughed my ras off (the Pastor is so zuper... such a great sense of humour - he was talking about Esther at the time... and he was saying that she thought she was in a beauty pagaent basically- parading for the king, and he did the walk saying "if yuh see Esther walk"... man, that set me off), played Boogle until 10pm and time to hit the road to Chag chag.
*Zuper realises how little she got done for the day... ah well, tomorrow's a holiday, and guess who's the lucky one to work? Man... zuper... you livin' da life*
