The author discusses how (according to the Bible and other references) Adam and Eve were created in the likeness of God but fell from that status with the original sin, dragging the entire world (or the universe) to spiritual and moral decline. On the other hand, he describes how Jesus could perform miracles because he was a pure soul, untainted by sin.
This suggests that the universe (and everything material within it) is not merely inactive or passive but responds and changes according to human morality and behaviour.
What do you think about this concept? Could it be possible that we are facing frequent natural disasters these days not simply because of the chaotic nature of the universe, but because it is affected by our immoral behaviours?
