Evolution aside, do you believe in history? This is a serious
question as personally, I don't.
But if you do believe in history you will see it is littered
with the remains of animal behaviour (upto and including
today).
If Gods goal is to pull us towards the divine then we would
have to agree that there is a push from history relating to
the animal from the past.
We could then say the the past represents evil and the future
represents divinity in Gods eyes. A very Utopian viewpoint.
So where does free choice come from? Does man really
have a choice between these two enormous forces?
