What I meant by "Jesus knew His audience" and which you could deduce given a few minutes of actual thought: just as a kindergarten teacher would use a well-known fairy tale to illustrate a point to her students, Jesus would have used the stories known and understood by his audience. This does not mean the fairy tale had any corporal validity, and the same could be said of Genesis.

Hmm, Genesis is a fairy tale and Christ's teachings are fairly tales according to you.

... and you dare claim yourself as an example of Christianity and evolution being able to coexist? You must think everyone is an idiot. Hate to tell you, they are not. They are much smarter than the guy who thinks everyone else is an idiot.
