Adams and Eve were of one flesh, were they not? She being his other “side,” and the one tempted by the the serpent. If you are going to reduce Christianity into philology, know there are limits to this. As for Ignorance, I merely said you haven’t read “Against the Heretics, which was directly mainly against the Gnostics, who denied the Virgin Birth.
Now you're saying that, but if before I must have missed it...
Those who denied the virgin birth... doesn't apply to myself in any way, no matter how desperately one may simply wish to lump myself in with some past heritics.

Adam tried to blame Eve, and Eve blamed the serpent. Neither excuse at the time, cut the mustard. Adam was convicted of the sin. Eve was not even (by God) charged with the crime. OR, show me where God pins the blame on her...and later scriptural foretelling concerning how it will or would require "obedience of a woman" to undo the ancient error.

So sticking with the Hebrew understanding of long standing, even prior to the Incarnation, is "reducing Christianity to philogy"? It's more a matter of proper exegesis.
Adding Mary as goddess (just lacking the word goddess, itself, but not the role or "power") is more the philogy...word games, and mental associations games with some FABLE mixed in. Having a Roman Catholic protecting Marionism while accusing me of engaging in "philogy" in my own opposition to the same, is extremely laughable.
I see the response is always "personal". Stuff it, mister, I'm not interested in recieving any more personal insults.
Stick with the subject matter, or shut up.
