I get a charge out of you Genesis critics. On one hand, you condemn the "literalists." On the other, you are incapable of recognizing figurative language when it bites you.

Since you acknowledge that Genesis is "figurative language", then how come it's not figurative enough to encompass Evolution?

First you have this rigid idea that Genesis can't possibly allow that God created Evolution, but then you say it uses "figurative language".

Go figure.

You've been conversing with Dataman enough to know that he has redefined "evolution" to mean something completely different than what any scientist means when they say it, though he argues as though everyone uses his definition.

Really, narby, if you can't read, you shouldn't be here.
