The Stones Cry Out
I wandered into the local parish church in New Alresford this week and was amazed to find in a corner a small display of 2 ancient stones. One was from Ur of the Chaldees, complete with incription and the other was from the Palace of Nebuchadnezzar and contained an incription with his name on it. It was like suddenly being transported back over 3000 years to 2 pieces of biblical history. Ur was where Abraham came from and Daniel would have walked in Nebuchadnezzars's Palace. They may have even see these stones?
I can remember when I was young seeing a TV science fiction film that was based on the idea that stones absorb memories just like a digital camera (which wasn't even dreamt of then) and if only you could find a way of replaying the memories recorded it would be amazing.
Wouldn't it be great if you could do that with these 2 stones.
