Its interesting that your “rebuttals” do not disagree with the essence of Genesis. However you seem enraged that someone may accept its essence but not its literality. Well if you are truly a tolerant person, you should recognize that people have the God given ability to think and ponder everything. You should also be humble enough to consider that you may be wrong in your approach and your intransience[sic] leads good people away from God.

I'm not seeing any signs of CofA being "enraged", "intolerant" or "intransigent (that is what you meant, right?)". Nor is there a lack of "humility". Just someone arguing her point using both logic as well as Biblical examples to back it up. What do your rebuttals offer other than a denial of a literal meaning to an important issue Christians should be clear on? Are YOU humble enough to admit you could be wrong in both your approach as well as your opinion? I would think "good" people, who are sincerely looking into the topic might appreciate a strongly supported basis for an argument. So far, I haven't been convinced you have one.

Thank you, boatbums. Heaven knows I’m wrong about PLENTY every day. But it’s a simple thing to read the written words of Jesus, and know that He can never lie nor mislead us.
