Product Description
Whether the story of Adam-and-Eve being the 1st and 2nd humans to inhabit the Earth is literally true or a myth, the biblical story has them in a paradise of plenty with only one constraint for them to be able to remain in the Garden. This text considers what the details of that biblical paradise might have been and what some of the details of our own present-day Garden are along with some present-day constraints.<br><br>Throughout the text there are suggested Google searches which will suggest links to additional material that would provide enriching content for the topic being discussed. As an example, in the first section you will find reference to a description of our present Garden, Earth, by Rusty Schwikert, who was an astronaut contemplating what he was seeing as he orbited the Earth. It is a recording of his actual words. If you wish, Google what is in brackets when you find this type of notation in the text.<br><b><i>[Rusty Schweickart Lindisfarne Association 1974 No Frames No Boundaries]Google this</i></b><br><b><i>This link is about 40 minutes long.

Chapter II deals with details of our present-day Garden. Chapter III considers a discussion of one analysis about the future of our Garden.<br><br>The Garden includes, not only material things, but also what humans brought to the Garden by way of knowledge and ideas. One specific example is explained in some detail in chapter 3 for two reasons. First, it does answer the question posed in chapter 3 regarding what the future holds. But equally important, it provides just one example of how knowledge itself, though ephemeral, is an important part of what exists in the Garden. .<br><br>Part II is intended as a brief subjective first-person discussion about how we know what we know and of two vantage points through which people can know things.<br><br>Part III briefly describes just two examples in the vast Canon of Knowledge humanity has acquired which must be considered as part of the “inventory” of the place we call home.
