Ever had someone tell you, ‘You’re missing the whole point! The purpose of Genesis is to teach that God is our Creator. We should not be divisive over the small details. Genesis teaches the theological truth of “Who?” and “Why?” not about the “How?” and “When?”’ Or else they say that the Bible is a book for faith and morality, not history.

Yes. And I've read it many more times. They're idiots and hypocrites. They say Genesis is "not a textbook of science" but they believe the "new testament" is a textbook of gynecology.

A single miracle completely destroys the "uniformity of nature." But here you have people who believe everything in the "new testament" actually happened but who for some reason have this irrational NEED for the creation of the universe from nothing be a purely natural phenomenon!

However, the critic has overlooked something even more important—Genesis is written as real history. This is why the rest of the Bible treats the events, people, and time sequences as real history—not parables, poetry, or allegory.

"The critic" doesn't care. Forget him. (Too bad the author is a messy antic!)

Luke was a medical doctor.. nobody cares that you hate Christ. Christ was in the Garden of God called ‘the tree of life’…. Ol want-a-be Jesus was there as well, symbolically called the ‘tree of the knowledge of good and evil’. Because the serpent had gone bad and had been sentenced to death. But the accuser has many names and roles…. In Ezekiel he is called the king of Tyrus. The ol dragon is the only named entity already judged to death.

They say Genesis is "not a textbook of science" but they believe the "new testament" is a textbook of gynecology.

OK--no one else has pointed it out so I will.

The New Testament is NOT a gynecology textbook.

It's not even mostly genealogy, but I don't think there is a single verse in regards to gynecology.
