Hart

The statement, "nature for us is a single, internally consistent thing, an event,lovely and enticing, then terrible and pitiless, abundant and destructive at once, but moved neither by will nor by intelligence; it is sheer fact" really made me stop and think about the true nature of man, the flesh. Everything the flesh desires can be seen as lovely and enticing, however it can end in destruction and pitiless. It is constant, but I believe the consistency is a battle. The battle we face as Christian against the worldly temptations we are so easily drawn to. That human nature is not will, we do not ask for what we suffer, although we might have chosen it, and it also does not take intelligence to fall into it. It is a sheer fact that nature is both inviting and deceitful as Hart assumes.
