We live in a promise. The Words Spoken were a promise. God Spoke how things would be.
Choice is a HUGE responsibility! FREEDOM of choice? INTENSE!
When God Created Man, God simply said “Eat anything BUT the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil…”
“Yes!” I hear a chorus of “Naysayers.”
“This ‘creationist’! What ‘crap’ does he have to say now?”
Let us take a true scientific step back.
The human body. Its complexities? Given the time since the Earth was, do we truly believe that we were eukaryotes, protozoa…at some point? Why do we still have what we came from around?
We could discuss the complexities of human anatomy.
Yes! It IS based on what was, the more advanced forms. IF we care to look back at what is ‘said’ to be the timeline of ecology 8n The Bible, there are certain truisms that we cannot but see.
When Man began to create images, were there dinosaurs? Yes, we see and read of all sorts of ‘creatures’, but do we see illustrations? Were we not drawing ‘yet’?
In that case we were communicating with barks and grunts? Words? From where?
This gets more profound!
The evolutionary emergence of language in the human species has been a subject of speculation for several centuries. The topic is difficult to study because of the lack of direct evidence.

Stydy and study hard!
How is it that in any tongue we ‘speak’ to things we do not see in the physical? Are there ‘unseen’ forces?
Who are you? This will shock you! YOU are your experience, your experiences define you and only you!
We have discussed this before; even twins, siamese or otherwise have different ‘thoughts’, actions, words, distinct personalities! Where are we going with this?
Simply, you are YOU! No one else! Let me sprinkle some contemplative dust here. IF you are just you, what happens to your memories? They are past events that define you! What is a memory?
/ˈmem(ə)rē/
noun
1. The faculty by which the mind stores and remembers information.
“I’ve a great memory for faces”
2. Something remembered from the past; a recollection.
“one of my earliest memories is of sitting on his knee”
synonyms:recollection, remembrance, reminiscence, evocation, reminder, souvenir, echo, impression
“my memory of the events is faint”
But, recollection is REAL. Will we ever give account of our memories? It is who and what we are! I will steer clear of anything to do with ‘religion’ for now.
Picasso we are ‘aware’ of. Artist? He has been dead for years; yet he is still criticized! Who and what he was is still a source of discourse. Care to see?
We do not have to stay on art alone. Music?
Gone far enough? We have memories!

I simply quote what is said re: memory.
There is a parable told by Jesus of ‘memory’
in Luke 16. It is driven home by the verse:
“But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.”
Luke 16:25
So, what are memories? Temporary or permanent? Will there ever be a place where it is said “IF I had known…”
To rescind to the factual side; what happens to YOUR memories? I am simply asking. Your memories are YOU!
