Doesn't Genesis have God speaking 'and it was good'? (I've only read it once, long ago.) Words are power. It's why people chant and pray and repeat mantras; they are trying to force the world into a cast of their making by using words that shape their will.

I love the glimpse into Sam's head. Intellectually introspective thinky thoughts filtered through an alcoholic haze. I have to agree with some of the other commenters, it would be nice to see some of this kind of stuff with Sam in show.More discussions of how and why and less punching of each other.
