“My point stands despite doctrinal differences. The majority of Christendom throughout history has not adopted a literal interpretation of scripture. Neither does the Jewish faith see belief in Genesis as a contradiction towards acceptance of scientific evidence about the age of the earth, the universe, life and humanity.”

That just isn’t true, but I won’t argue the point. Except to say that until Roman Catholicism got a choke grip on minds in about the third century AD until the Great Reformers like Luther and Calvin were sent by God.....

Judaism is passe and doesn’t count as a “authority.”

Well it was written in their language, that gives them a bit of linguistic authority at least.

But if your citing Luther as your inspiration then...

“Did you not know that a Jew is so beloved of God that every time one farts a thousand Angels dance?” Martin Luther
