So we’re beginning again.  We’re reading the Bible all over again.  It always feels new, and like a chance to be born over again.  But there’s still me, and you, and the wars that intensify and diminish but never end.  If it’s not Beowulf, it’s Grendel, if it’s not Jabberwock, it’s the Jubjub bird.  So beginning again spiritually gives you a new way to handle it, maybe.  It doesn’t stop Cain from killing Abel, but maybe helps to understand the dangers before us – how our extreme desires can ruin an otherwise perfect world.
