Yes I have the Scripture. But it is not simple. Why take the Adam account over Gen 1? Why interpret "adamah" as dust? It might mean molecules.

Taking the Bible literally makes Ch 1 & 2 conflict. This is not a very good impression of God's work, imo.

You see I disagree with you, Genesis 1 is the overview of creation Genesis 2 gives us the details. There is nothing in Genesis that would indicate that it is not to be taken literally. In context it is quite literal. God cannot contradict Himself and Jesus speaks to creation. It is quite simple so anyone can understand and yet if we allow ourselves to study the text the depth is incredible. God is awesome.
