C.S Lewis is my hero
Wow my first live journal entry. Finally! And now that i have one, I do not know what to say. haha. I will just have to make something up. Nah.
So i've been reading some stuff about Creation and evolution, and i have come upon a quote by C.S. Lewis. It's interesting to think about i guess. I've heard it before and it wasn't quite like this one, but very similar.
"Supposing there was no intelligence behind the universe, no creative mind. In that case nobody designed my brain for the purpose of thinking. It is merely that when the atoms inside my skull happen for physical or chemical reasons to arrange themselves in a certain way, this gives me, as a by-product, the sensation I call thought. But if so, how can I trust my own thinking to be true? It's like upsetting a milk-jug and hoping that the way the splash arranges itself will give you a map of London. But if I can't trust my own thinking, of course I can't trust the arguments leading to atheism, and therefore have no reason to be an atheist.... Unless I believe in God, I can't believe in thought: so I can never use thought to disbelieve in God."
hmmmmmmmmm.......
is it just me or do a lot of emo people like norah jones? that's gross.
