Ahaa, so the serpent was not a snake or a serpent. Since the Bible proves that Gen 2 is figurative, we can discard the literal story and take it as a figurative spiritual lesson.
You can't have it both ways. The Noah story is the same. When something is obviously figurative, since the facts don't jive with reality, we can't insist someone believe it literally.

You know very well "IF" in fact that you can read 'HEBREW' that the snake and or the serpent of Genesis is NOT a literal physical snake.
