![]() We also see scattered categories when it comes to gender and sex. They confuse collusive or crony capitalism with “religious” capitalism found in Genesis and established by the early church. Sadly, this includes a growing percentage of millennial Christians. A majority of millennials now reject capitalism. Today we see increasingly scattered categories. This is how we properly name flourishing economics- capitalism, the system that has lifted more people out of poverty than any other. It requires amassing surplus capital from our six days of work-capitalism. The Sabbath is celebration not deprivation. Example: God worked six days, rested on the seventh. Albert Einstein said it’s the most important thing you can do (it’s essential for flourishing). I’m not talking robes or Gregorian chants but rather Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant Orders designed to help us properly name things. In May, the Arizona Court of Appeals defined a “day.” It doesn’t jibe with Genesis, but that’s not surprising since few take Religious Orders seriously these days. We wake halfway through the day, refreshed to do God’s will. That’s backward, which is why so many anxiously scurry about, toiling from dawn to dusk. They reorder disorders such as how we define a “day.” Most folks assume it begins at dawn and ends late at night. ![]() They sin and the Earth begins to slouch toward disorder, returning to formless and void. It’s not good for Adam to do this alone, so Eve joins the fun. He turns the task of ordering over to Adam, who further orders creation by naming objects within God’s set of categories (2:19-20). Genesis One has many categories, such as a “day” being defined by a rotating pattern-“evening, then morning.” God creates additional categories defining gender, marriage, work, and so on. He does this by naming objects within a set of categories he creates. God creates by ordering the disorder (1:3). Satan’s presence is why the Earth is chaotic. It is disordered mass-scattered-the result of Lucifer’s rebellion in eternity past. Why? The Earth is formless and void, a phrase denoting judgment. Sounds like Genesis, where God creates categories over the course of six days. The objective is to score points by naming objects within a set of categories, given an initial letter, all within a time limit. ![]() Scattergories is one of them, a creative-thinking category-based game. Kathy and I like playing games with friends and family. But it’s also how we promote human flourishing. ![]()
