False Narrative: You Are An Accident
The Russian writer Leo Tolstoy describes a view (not his own view, because Tolstoy was a Christian) of the human person, based on a theory of reality he saw emerging in his day. It is a narrative that maintains that everything is secular (meaning there is no God and no spiritual dimension to life or to humans). In his book
A Confession, Tolstoy named this view of the human being: You are an accidentally united little lump of something. That little lump ferments. The little lump calls that fermenting its “life.” The lump will disintegrate and there will be an end of the fermenting and of all the questions. Tolstoy was describing the emerging intellectual view in his day, a view that is widely accepted today in the modern world.
