Right. Whos to say "Genesis" is not a metaphor or a series of metaphors.. especially the Adam Eve story.. Seeing a metaphore as literal is like running to the window to see cats and dogs falling during a rain storm.. missing the whole copcept of its raining cats and dogs.
Various judeo-christian religions are good at that.. Since Jesus spoke mostly in parables(metaphors) what he was saying might have totally or partially been misunderstood too.
However current evolutionary theory stands completely against any God concept, unless "God" is "the force"... makeing God a fairy tale. When actually evolution is a fairy tale for ADULTS..
I am getting very frustrated with people who make all kinds of assertions without any knowledge of fact. For about the gazillionth time, evolution has nothing whatsoever to say about the existence of God. Evolution deals with what happened after the first life form came into existence. Notice that it has absolutely nothing to say about the origin of this life. It could have arisen as a result of chemical processes, it could have been created directly by God, it could have come from space, or it could have been sneezed out by the Great Green Arkleseizure. It is completely irrelevant to the theory of evolution. I have furthermore repeatedly maintained that no scientific theory or hypothesis, up to and including the big bang theory is a repudiation of God's existence. Could God not have created space-time via the mechanism of the big bang and allowed the universe to evolve according to the laws of nature which he also created? Could not life have arisen as a result of this process? Could not all the life seen on earth have arisen then as a result of evolution? God would still be the Creator of life; he just used the big bang, the laws of nature and the process of evolution to do the job. To me, a God who could design and create all of this is a much more awe-inspiring God than one who has to create each and every thing separately. Science continues to reinforce my faith. If it causes you to question yours or anyone else's, then maybe the problem isn't science.
