Not only is this account of creation not like the others, but every claim it makes about the world also holds up to human experience, even today.

Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy and/or confusing Cause and Effect.

The logic of this article is profoundly flawed.

Since we, in the Western Hemisphere, have a Weltbild shaped by Christianity, of course we are going to find the Christian version of the Creation Myth more to our liking.

The people of some other culture will, by the same token, say with satisfaction how their Creation Myth is unique in having the world formed by spilled seed of two celestial beings having sex, etc. - which they will claim better reflects the world as we see it today.

“Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy”

Hadn’t heard that one before.

It’s got to be the most commonly used “trick” by every single media (propaganda) outlet of both sides (or any side).

It’s the essence of propaganda. Emphasize facts that support your point of you, bury the ones that don’t.
