As a Christian I accept that some parts of the Bible are not literal. Genesis, while beautifuly written, is questionable.

If Genesis were the only part of Scripture that refers to God's creation, or Adam, you might have some validity.

If you accept that human beings evolved from animals, you don't accept the whole of Scripture. If you accept that God created man, uniquely and in His own image, you don't accept the whole of evolution.

As a Christian, you have to make a choice, but you can't completely accept both.
