If Thine Hand Offendeth Thee...
This guy sounds like the fundamentalist Christian cousin the Carver never likes to talk about.
"I know the secularist view says, 'Well, you know, if you're not a spiritual being, you're just an animal or you're just a physical being,'" the surgeon says, "'so just fix what's wrong with your body and you can be okay.' Well, nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, when you see how thoroughly physical you are and how your sinful processes originate in your body, you realize you're corrupted with sin from head to toe."
Joy. My body is riddled with sin. And here I thought I'd just have to worry about cholesterol.
