You don't get it son. This isn't a mud hole, it's an operating table. And I'm the surgeon.

Can you help me understand? Alright look, why did the ancestral beings make a mistake and end up having both the lilith and adam egg on earth? I mean if they were godlike how did they -blam!- up on that and not bother to fix it or move one of the eggs? Also, could it all have been avoided if that organization didnt try to mess with adam and remove adam's soul? Im lost here trying to watch this anime.

why a murder train?Well, The Blues revolve around trains, and I'm trying to be Blues-y about it.

I like how your sub box is full of science and political videos but your recommendations are full of anime girls kissing each other.

Just Zoid being Zoid ^_^

I am not just referring to floodians, there isn't a single person on the planet who understood what the -blam!- occurred.

I was waiting for you to post that image, Ian.

It makes sense if you go through it a few times and watch the movies. The whole resetting humanity's evolutionary cycle because we can no longer evolve. Angels being another evolutionary form of humanity. The whole idea behind instrumentality and why Shinji rejects it. Even I feel the need to watch it again now just so I can refresh my memory of the series.

Whoops sorry, didn't read your OP. Let me see if I can tackle your questions for you one by one.

>Alright look, why did the ancestral beings make a mistake and end up having both the lilith and adam egg on earth?
Answer: It was a freak accident. Adam was supposed to be the rightful heir to the Earth, but he was frozen in ice when he landed. Lilith just happened to accidentally land there to by a freak accident.

>I mean if they were godlike how did they -blam!- up on that and not bother to fix it or move one of the eggs?
Answer: the FAR left after they sent the seeds off, no one knows if they're even alive.

>Also, could it all have been avoided if that organization didnt try to mess with adam and remove adam's soul?
Answer: SEELE wanted to begin Human Instrumentality. They didn't know waking Adam was start Second Impact. But they learned their mistake from it which is why they did extensive research through NERV before beginning Third Impact.

So why does adam produce angels and lilith produce regular life? Why does it have to be different? Whats the point in putting angels on one planet and regular life on another? And why is asuka still alive? She was killed by the artificial evas right?

  • 12.30.2012 10:15 PM PDT

>So why does adam produce angels and lilith produce regular life?
Answer: Humanity is an Angel in itself. We are just a different possibility of what an Angel could be. All the Angels created by Adam are just different outcomes of what we could be also.

>Whats the point in putting angels on one planet and regular life on another?
Answer: Angels would live their life in such a different form that we can't comprehend it. Two vastly different life forms living together will create conflict.

>And why is asuka still alive? She was killed by the artificial evas right?
Answer: Like I said in the other thread (sorry about confusing you over that), anyone who recently died before Third Impact got to get tanged so their soul was still alive. How she got her physical body is just a plot hole.

Im guessing since it was explained you could will yourself back to life thats what asuka did. How she knew I do not know. So if angels were the rightful heir to earth, did humanity just tell them to go -blam!- themselves and then destroy them?

  • 12.30.2012 10:23 PM PDT

Pretty much, yeah. However, the Angels last hope of getting their planet back was Kaworu since he was right up in front of Lilith. He could have started Third Impact, killed the human race and brought back the Angels for his race. However he let Shinji kill him cause he knew that Humanity was more deserving of the Earth.

That's why people call Kaworu Jesus. Cause Kaworu died for your sins.

Didn't seem that way to me.

  • 12.30.2012 10:32 PM PDT

They didn't know it would start Second Impact, but they thought it would start Human Instrumentality.

As you can see, what they expected and what they got were two totally different things.
