0099  These comments frame the first seven chapters of Haarsma’s book<\/em> as an exercise in semitic textual structure<\/em>.  The pattern is A:B:C:D:C’:B’:A’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haarsma asks the reader to recognize a possibility<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These comments show what that possibility might be<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That possibility is the intersection of our current Lebenswelt<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0100 The natural transition3H<\/sub> is plainly laid out in The First Singularity And Its Fairy Tale Trace<\/em>.  Implications are discussed in Comments on Original Death and Original Sin: Roman 5:12-19<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0101 The hypothesis is dramatically rendered in An Archaeology of the Fall<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The novel begins with the daughter of an archaeologist recounting the differentiation of Sumerian Gods from a primordial dyad, the waters above<\/em> and the waters below<\/em>.  The tale appears in Samuel Noah Kramer’s 1961 book, Sumerian Mythology<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0102 The key is differentiation.  Differentiation implies symbolization.  Purely symbolic speech-alone talk allows the articulation of distinctions.  These distinctions become real as artifacts (such as mythologies) are constructed.  Artifacts validate speech-alone words.  Artifacts validate the distinctions that speech-alone words symbolize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know that sounds circular.  But, so does most everything else in our current Lebenswelt<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0103 The waters above<\/em> and the waters below<\/em> conjugate, and give birth to the air god.  The air god separates the waters above<\/em> and the waters below<\/em>, before stealing everything they own.  He makes their remains<\/em> the ceiling and floor of his home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is this a picture of the Ubaid, Uruk and Sumerian Dynastic archaeological periods?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is differentiation<\/em> intrinsic to increasing labor and social specializations?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0104 Is the deception, depicted in the stories of Adam and Eve,<\/em> another picture of the same archaeological periods?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
