    Running thread: how did they manage to alter our history?

    Genesis 3:24? When I read Genesis, or religious text in general, I can’t help but feel that the writings are of an alternate reality... One that I am unable to relate to.

    Running thread: how did they manage to alter our history?

    Is it possible to ascertain much of anything about history? As written, history is fiction. His story. Consider how the perspectives on current events vary wildly. There is very clearly no arbiter of truth. What hope do we have of saying anything with certainty about what came before us? In...

    The Matrix: Sphere with a Flat Surface
