I prefer to devote time and effort into learning about the scriptures, not just their words but their origins as well. I may read a passage, search out what is known about how it came to be included in the Bible, ponder it, consider how it relates to other biblical passages, pray about it, etc. After all this, I accept that the understanding my studies grant to me is God's answer to my questions about it.
I gather that you, on the other hand, are content to lazily accept with blind faith the opinion of someone else who may or may not have pursued their own research.
I daresay that between you and I, it is not I that has the least amount of respect and love for His Word.
So, you think it is a proper hermeneutic to read naturalistic science into the biblical text? Any time that the bible agrees with any atheistic naturalistic scientist, it is pure coincidence. An atheist does not have the truth, does not have the proper worldview, and therefore is not capable of finding the truth. The truth can only be found through Jesus Christ. Without Him, a person is in darkness in all areas of life.
As far as origins of the text, I don't buy for a second that any interpretation can credibly be construed to include pre-adamite hominids.
