The problem of Cain and Able

I was reading "Hegira" by Greg Bear. A good early novel by a great writer. As an aside he mentioned Cain and Able in the book. Then it hit me. God favored one sacrifice over another. I was taught it was not the sacrifice but how one did it. Regardless it shows that god shows favor. This seems to justify the "holier than thou" attitude that helped to push me away from any organized religion.

Why couldn't of god shown Cain how he wanted sacrifice? Did god want Able murdered? It just seems like a bad way to run things.

Walking in a winter wonderland

I know, this is another snow post, but there is more to it than that. Thursday morn' me and bunny notice that snow is everywhere. So we decide to walk up to some food and then to see a movie. Dressing warmly enough, it was just a joy to walk in the snow and breath the clean cold air. We had a good time watching movie, eating food and then going hope. It just made for a nice day to be with your mate.
