I really, really enjoyed this. As the joke goes, I'm a militant agnostic ("I don't know...AND NEITHER DO YOU!"), and I tend to be extremely put off by, as you phrased it, Christian buggery. This was soooo totally not that! There's a world of difference between self-righteous preachiness and exploring a creation myth, and this came across as an extremely well done version of the latter, at least IMNSHO.

I had the same concerns as porn_this_way, for the same reasons. But I liked the answering of that simple but puzzling question: why ruin the beauty and innocence? Because the simplicity is also static, and there is no growth or finding of potential where there is no knowledge or risk.

I thought this was great. I particularly like the way ended it, those single sentences work really well. And the sentences themselves are great ^_^

This was achingly beautiful. I was wondering where you were going with this, too, and it took big huge cojones to go this route. I like to believe there's a higher power but I also believe if there is, he or she would want us to make our own mistakes and realize our own potential and not just blindly follow some set of rules he wrote for us. Why even give us free will otherwise?

I started off with some of my fellow cynics here, I'll admit. But this is the best kind of Christian-referenced writing! I enjoyed the characters so much, and found the entire thing pleasantly un-preachy and well-written!
