Allegories. Explaining to the illiterate uncultured. Like parables.

Eve first sees Adam. And vice versa. "Dang! How big does that thing get?!?!"

God shows up a week later. Adam is scratched, beat, bruised and limping.
"God? What's a "headache"?"

That is a religious point. It shouldn't be in Chit-Chat. If those of us who Believe were to make such posts, we would be threatened with banishment.

Of course. It's his site, he makes the rules. You could start your own site and make your own rules.

I was listening to a podcast last night on the historicity of the Genesis account and found it very interesting, as it relates this familiar tale to similar myths throughout the near East, Greece and beyond. The main discussant was Dr. Robert Price, who is known as a New Testament scholar but has much broader scope of knowledge, drawing parallels to other myths, some surprisingly (to me), e.g. Prometheus. I found it on YouTube, and enjoyed it.
