Yes, it’s autumn, and a beautiful autumn it is turning out to be here in the Pacific Northwest.  But I was thinking about a different fall this morning.

I was thinking of what the remaining 31,040 verses in the Bible would look like if two verses in Genesis read differently:

6And 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.

7And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

We see the results of this choice through the rest of history and in our own lives.  The only question remaining is how will this decision made thousands of years ago affect our decisions today?
