Number 5

I was watching some nature show a while back, and the narrator was going off about global warming, saying that the way the Himalayas were melting was "unnatural". This got me thinking, how do we know? How do we, in our artificial buildings with all our plastic instruments, measuring made-up variables know a thing about natural, about real? We know because there is nothing more natural than god's plan for us. No, that's not true. There's always human nature, and in that way, sin. Failure is more true than fact, because facts are largely the justifications of our imaginations. What is, is. What god is, is more. In that way, can't we determine that all we need to know, is what god leads us to know?
