The "Cultural Context" Excuse

[Huggy Bear]

First of all, get the idea of the serpent being a reptile out of your head, it was humanoid. The serpent was cursed to crawl on his belly as punishment for what he had done, that tells you right there that is had a completely different form than it currently does.

How exactly do you know that its 'different form' was humanoid?

It had the ability to reason, could talk, but mainly Because it could sexually reproduce with humans.

Humanoid or not, Huggy Bear, it would still be a reptile. It may be something out of David Icke's wet dreams, but, damn it, a humanoid reptile is still a goddam reptile. Its biology would still be too different for Eve and the serpent to procreate. Also, I love it that you use that one passage as an excuse to ignore everything else I wrote. All it does is make your position look like it was built on the sand.

*emphasis mine*
Which is why it wasn't a reptile as I have already stated.

The Hebrew word for serpent is "Nachash" which means "shining one", that doesn't describe a reptile at all.
