I am in awe of the poetic power of the scriptures, how you can’t approach the subject of God without metaphor. All the way from Adam and Eve these fantastical stories help us make a way through our metaphysical lives. If science is how we navigate the physical universe, then religious texts offer to navigate the more than physical, the existence we can’t even prove exists. Stories that are instruments of inquiry into an invisible world we strain to see, a world we glimpse through art and family and friendship. Stories of a love that has no beginning and no end.
