*sigh*

well, two and a half weeks ago, I woke up shaking and shivering. I knew i had an infection in my leg (again), so I held off until first light, and went straight to the doctor. He referred me to hospital.

The next 3 days I had a temperature of 40degC. No sleep. The next 3 days I had a massive asthma attack AND a temperature (around 38). Still no sleep. Here endeth the first week of misery.

the next 4 days my temperature stabilised and i spent 99% of it on my back with my leg above the level of my heart. Finally started to get 1-2 hours sleep a day. On the 10th day I got about 4 hours sleep which sorta restored me to normality.

I returned home then, and have been here for a week now, still lying with my foot in the air. Trying to do some work from home because I cant afford to lose pay.

God has been good, he provided me with wonderful nurses, especially Nancy. I've had a lot of time to pray and reflect on life, especially my priorities.

The Ectoplasmic Panhellenic Investigation

Thats the name of an episode of "The Middleman" - which I have never watched, however, I am intrigued by the name.

I was quite disappointed in the lost finale. Although it explained alot of things, it didnt really finish on a "cliff hanger".

Still, it was good for sure.

I've been discussing progressive revelation with some folks recently. Their idea is that over time as human understanding evolves, our understanding of God evolves also. The problem with this idea is that their understanding of God can evolve into something that doesnt reflect "what God is".

You see, if God was like "this", and over time human understanding evolves and we now think God is like "--that--", we have a problem. "This" and "--that--" are two completely different things which suggests that "this" was wrong in the first place, which suggests that "--that--", an evolution of "this" is also wrong, which leads to "God does not exist at all".

Progressive revelation should suggest that we comprehend more about what "this" is. As soon as it evolves into "--that--" it cancels itself out.
