controversy, the sun also rises?

Question

what's so controversial about the sun also rises?

written by Ernest Hemingway

Answer 1

Hemingway's first novel deals with a guy wounded in the war, effectively gelded (which was something people did NOT talk about at that time), who wasted around drinking too much and mooning over not being able to have sex with a girl he was fixated on (another topic not discussed publicly at that time, as was public drunkenness) - that is why, within the context of when it was published, it was controversial, often banned in United States libraries, and regularly discussed in literary debate.

Answer 2

well one main reason, Why. if there is no God or designer to the universe that we can call upon to say,"he made it uniform so the sun will rise in the future", then all we know is the past because we have witnessed it. We cannot witness the future only God can by definition. Without God there is a possibility it will not rise tomorrow because all we know is the past. With a God we know he has made it that way and it will continue that way because of revelation (scripture). It is a deeply profound question actually.
An Atheist can only account for this tested in the past, A Theist has a foundation to state the future. It can go deeper but ther eis not enough room here :)

God bless.
Look into the transcendental argumentation for GOd.

Answer 3

When you figure that out, maybe you can explain:
Of Mice and Men
Huckleberry Finn
How to Eat Fried Worms
Are You There God, It's Me Margaret
Flubber
Catcher in the Rye

I could go on, but... you get the point.

Answer 4

well he was wrong the sun does not rise, the earth rotates.

Answer 5

Sorry, I'm still struggling with 'For Whom the Bell Tolls'.

Answer 6

I don't know. It is as it looks here, but I believe we all know that the earth rotates.
