Human Nature and Creation Story

Thread 1

The Christian worldview provides an explanation for human nature and the story of the creation and fall (Gen. 1-3). A great deal of the suffering that people experience and much of man’s inhumanity to man are explained by this description of the fall of human nature. Is this characterization of human nature accurate? Why or why not? If not, what is an alternative explanation?

Thread 2

How does the Fall relate to tragedies like 9/11 and disasters such as the Tsunami of 2004?

Explain how your reaction to evil events has caused you to reassess your worldview.
