Don Jaime, ese ser multicelular

[Nicotin]

Además creo que el hebreo escrito ni siquiera tiene vocales.

Hombre, Prez, Harlan Ellison consiguió un Hugo con esa idea... sólo hace unos 30 años.

1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the held which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea hath God said, Ye shall not eat o every tree of the garden?
2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat o f it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
S (Omitted) .
6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
7 (Omitted)
8 (Omitted)
9 And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
10 (Omitted)
11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof 1 commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and 1 did eat.
13 And the LORD God said unto the. woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and 1 did eat.
14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
15 And 1 will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

GENESIS, Chap. 111

TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION
(Give 5 points per right answer)

1. Melville's Moby Dick begins, “Call me Ishmael.” We say it is told in the first person. In what person is Genesis told? From whose viewpoint?
2. Who is the “good guy” in this story? Who is the “bad guy”? Can you make a strong case for reversal of the roles?
3. Traditionally, the apple is considered to be the fruit the serpent offered to Eve. But apples are not endemic to the Near East. Select one of the following, more logical substitutes, and discuss how myths come into being and are corrupted over long periods of time: olive, fig, date, pomegranate.
4. Why is the word LORD always in capitals and the name God always capitalized? Shouldn't the serpent's name be capitalized, as well? If no, why?
5. If God created everything (see Genesis, Chap. I), why did he create problems for himself by creating a serpent who would lead his creations astray? Why did God create a tree he did not want Adam and Eve to know about, and then go out of his way to warn them against it?
6. Compare and contrast Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling panel of the Expulsion from Paradise with Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights.
7. Was Adam being a gentleman when he placed blame on Eve? Who was Quisling? Discuss “narking” as a character flaw.
8. God grew angry when he found out he had been defied. If God is omnipotent and omniscient, didn't he know? Why couldn't he find Adam and Eve when they hid?
9. If God had not wanted Adam and Eve to taste the fruit of the forbidden tree, why didn't he warn the serpent? Could God have prevented the serpent from tempting Adam and Eve? If yes, why didn't he? If no, discuss the possibility the serpent was as powerful as God.
10. Using examples from two different media journals demonstrate the concept of “slanted news.”

Jorgito, no te gastes, que no vale la pena.

Discrepo.

La intención es divertirse y, dada la gran capacidad de determinación para meterse en la mierda por impulsión propia que estos bichejos poseen, intentarlo es lo menos que se puede hacer. Rompo una lanza en favor de ello, me cago en diez.
