God is neither good
nor evil,
neither loving
nor hating.
God is Power.
God is Change.
We must find the rest of what we need within ourselves,
in one another,
in our Destiny
p.245
You guys know I'm a week behind in class discussions, so pardon me if this calls for redundant conversation.
I was trying to find a quote that really summarized the book or at least a major theme, and this is the closest I came. Not only is this quotation something pretty close to how I view the world (putting a lot of importance on human autonomy), but it also seems to set out some of the rules that a utopia needs to exist.
With that in mind, what is the utopia in this book/the reason for us reading it in this class? Is it Acorn? Is it all in Lauren's head and on the pages of her journal? Is it the decaying United States and the de facto rules governing society?
