Minus Soup

Eric at Square Zero has some thoughts on a public radio rendition of Adam and Eve. Well done, and yes, the areligious and irreverant often point to the Truth even as they try to mock God.

The quote he pulls from the program

“When you ate the fruit in Eden, it was like eating God,” he would say, “and God
was delicious. When you wanted him, you just grabbed him.” Now when he ate
fruit, he could only taste what was not there.

Sounds kinda like the Minus Soup story I remember from grade school. Trying to fill the God spaced hole in our lives with more and more stuff leaves us unsatisfied.
