A Different Kind of Sleep
Thursday, September 9, 2010
Where did Sleep come from?
Sin caused Sleep.
You heard it here first. There is no mention of sleep or rest in the Garden of Eden except as a basic anesthetic when Adam has the rib-ectomy. And I don't buy the "well it is taken for granted" argument either. Leading creation scientists argue that Noah's flood was the first time it rained - ever. And in fact there is no mention of rain until the flood. (Which puts Noah's faith at a crazy high level by the way.) Basically, we can't argue that Adam and Eve slept in the Garden of Eden because the Bible doesn't mention it one way or the other. That being said, I can't definitely say that they didn't sleep either. So - next point.

Jet Lag
It is a widely recognized fact that jet lag was invented by Jules Verne.
But how real is jet lag? I'm running on 4 hours sleep right now so can't I figure out a plan to adapt to the new time zone within 24 hours of being home? Is it that people just don't try, don't plan in advance or even worse, use it as a crutch to get out of stuff they really just don't want to do anyway? I'm not sure but for the first time I'm going to spend 10 minutes and make a plan to return to full functionality within 24 hours.
