    Hello All:

    The following blurb has been a part of some of the most compelling
    stuff I've read anywhere:

    I agree.

    What series of events led to the first time someone asked: "Who am I?"

    Adam & Eve mythology speaks to that moment. They eat fruit from "The
    Tree of Knowledge" and become aware of their differences, aware of
    boundaries and separateness.

    Humanity went from being nature to being in nature. Why though?

    Not an attempt to create another mystery here, Mark. Just wondering.

    Best regards,

    Chuck
