Right next to your talking snakes and donkeys...

Under over five miles of ocean? Your theory, not mine.

That can be conveyed with less than a fairytale-like story.

Yeah, but you see, as unwise as it might seem, you aren’t the editor.

Regardless of the blame game, the central story on which Christianity rests is a fantastic tale of a talking snake. Or do you sitll deny it in desperation?

It’s clear that you are desperate to insist that the central theme of the Bible consists of “fantastic tales.” You cling to your Derrida deconstruction. You dare not go further.

Just as "possible" as living in the stomach of a fish! The difference is that I am not obligated to believe fantastic tales and you may be, by virtue of the religion you profess, even if you reason may tell you otherwise. I am free.

And who's the editor?

I don't have to insist on it. Any reasonable person would know they are because animals don't posses the necessary anatomical features to produce articulated sounds, and as far as I know don't have human intellect, except of course in fairy tales and myths.

You cling to your Derrida deconstruction. You dare not go further.

Mind-reading and hoping the Religion Moderator doesn't catch it? :) Reaching for desperate measures? :)
