A Great Awakening<\/em> (C)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What (A) is happening?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God has a plan (B)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is revelation<\/em> (C) the antidote to illusion<\/em> (C)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does faith seeking understanding<\/em> (D) challenge delusion<\/em> (D)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0119 Is the unfolding of our current theodrama<\/em> an act of persuasion?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What an odd question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have we seen this theodrama<\/em> before?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0120 Exactly how ancient is the Greimas square’s update of a medieval scholastic debate?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it as old as the stories of Adam and Eve?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

0121 How could it be?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is another way to picture the updated scholastic Greimas square<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0122 Now, I associate elements in the Biblical story of the Fall<\/em> to this relational structure<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A is the tree at the center of the garden<\/em>.  This tree is a mind-independent being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the October 2022 blog, Looking at Loren Haarsma’s Book (2021) “When Did Sin Begin?”<\/em>, this examiner suggests that the tree of life in the garden of Eden<\/em> is already a mind-dependent being that is regarded as mind-independent<\/em>.  If so, then the Greimas square<\/em> already operates before Eve takes interest in the singular tree<\/em>.  Remember, D can replace A.  Remember that John Milton’s masterpiece, Paradise Lost,<\/em> begins with Lucifer’s rebellion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B is the spoken name that God gives to the tree<\/em>.  The tree of the knowledge of good and evil<\/em> comes with a command, “Do not eat, lest you die.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In C, Eve reacts to the name.  The serpent assists Eve in regarding the mind-independent being in the center of the garden<\/em>(A) as a mind-dependent being<\/em> (C).  The fruit appeals to the eyes, may be good to the taste, and is desired to make one wise.  The serpent pushes the envelope of an illusion (C).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D follows.  Eve is deluded into turning the illusion (C) into a mind-independent being (D).  When she eats the fruit, she violates the command accompanying the naming of the tree<\/em>.  The mind-initiated violation<\/em> is a mind-independent being<\/em>.  All humanity is plunged into a primal state of delusion<\/em>, where we habitually and blindly project categories of the mind<\/em>onto mind-independent reality<\/em>.  We frame.  We name.  We entertain illusion.  We create delusions.  Then, we regard our delusions (D) as mind-independent beings (A).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0123 Here is a picture of\u00a0the fall of Eve<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
