EDITORIAL
Adamic
dilemma is the problem of serial metaphysical, social, political, religious and
moral evils, phenomenologically traceable back to the commissions of sin and
disobedience by Adam and Eve, willingly or unwillingly, at the Garden of Eden.
The abuse of free will or deliberate inaction on moral rectitude by Adam and
Eve set in motion an inexorable, tendentious, teleological human perfidy,
carnage, scourge, plague and tragedies. Its phenomenology as the object of
epistemological and metaphysical inquiry in this special issue of ESSENCE and
OJIP will set the ball rolling in further researches on Adamic dilemma. This
issue is therefore, concerned with philosophical interface or interrogation
with Adamic viscous circle, centrifugal forces and cosmic doubt. In
contemplating and reflecting upon sin and disobedience of Adam and Eve and the
seeming consequence in the world, one is phenomenologically set to relate
appearances to essence in the ultimate apriori search for how to reverse the current flux on the planet earth. The focus of
this vision for a new world order are discussions on some consequences of the
moral and metaphysical evil of sin and disobedience in the garden of Eden, epitomized
by some substantive crises of mankind such as suicide, moral and metaphysical
evils. To take the lead in this phenomenological inquiry and subsequent
researches are: Adam Exist in the Mind of
Man by Maduabuchi Dukor; The Fallacy of
Religious Fundamentalism and its Ontological Boomerang Effect, by Edeh P.D; Psychocosmic Analysis of Suicide by
Ogundu Charles; Rural Libraries in Youth
Development in Nigeria by Obiozor-Ekeze, Roseline. N. and, A philosophical investigation of the nature
of God in Igbo ontology by Mbaegbu C.A.
