We place ourselves at the level of gods, thinking that if we can reason something out, we can then understand it and thereby bring it under our control. That is the essence of our "sin" - we think we have a right to ourselves and to control our destiny. What a profoundly depressing view of one's life. We have no right to attempt to control anything about ourselves or our destiny. And if we attempt to do so via Man's greatest capability, the ability to reason, then we are sinners. If I believed that I'd probably just go jump off a bridge right now. Fortunately, I don't believe any of it. In fact, reading it makes me want to go out and reread Atlas Shrugged.
