To: Hebrews 11:6
The madness of crowds - one minute they want to idolize you, the next - they'll stone you. Just can't trust 'em!

I liked #18 & 19 - they are mirror images! "Handedness", or chirality, is/was the most difficult aspect of organic chemistry for me. I just couldn't "see" it - while for others, it came naturally. It is also known (in literature) as "chiastic" structure, where the 1st chapter is echoed in the last, then 2nd chapter mirrored in 2nd-to-last, etc.

I was at a seminar (many years ago), where the speaker presented a case for Revelation being written with chiastic structure.

Also interesting in these works is the common 'tearing-of-garments'.

Perhaps you saw my note below #19: “Reversed from Raphael’s, above”.

Hugh Ross has pointed out that homochirality is essential to the building blocks of life, which is one of the factors that makes spontaneous natural assembly of life—as opposed to supernatural—all but impossible.
