Clark Beddoe, age 10, of Spokane, WA for his question:
Where is the Garden of Eden?
According to our religious faith, the Garden of Eden was mans original home. It was a home of ease and beauty from which mankind was cast out into the harsh world to make a living for himself. Naturally we would all like to get back to this Paradise, or at least visit it. Many explorers have tried to find it.
So far as we gather,. the original Garden was in the Middle East, perhaps not far from the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. No one has ever found it and no one can say for sure exactly where it was. Andy is sure that the important thing about the story is the lesson it teaches us. Perhaps we have not found it because we have not yet earned it. We shall certainly find it when we are ready for it and then who knows, it might be right in your own back yard.
