  Hi! As my unoriginal

  Hi! As my unoriginal username suggests, my name is Aimee. Should I correctly post the link, you'll find that Genesis' account of creation has special meaning for me. I was raised in a semi-Catholic household, so my parents used the "Let there be light," story to explain the origin of the universe to me as a child. Of course, like most semi-Catholics, we do not view Bible literally, and I personally feel that Genesis is just a very nice lie. However, I am enmeshed in a Judeo-Christian society, so I can never quite escape this "very nice lie."
