On Death and Will Power

 

(Episode 8)


+ Question 1

The Bible says that "through one man sin entered the world, and death by sin," but this seems to me to be a demonstrably false claim. Historical evidence proves that living creatures died for millions and millions of years before humans even came on the scene, so how could death enter the world through "one man?" And if that claim is false, doesn't the entire Judeo-Christian narrative fall apart?

+ Question 2

I'm trying to be more disciplined in certain areas of my life, and I'd love to have something at my fingertips to refocus my attention when my will starts to fail. Do you have a particular prayer you rely on in the face of temptation?
