If you still think my position is that the serpent was originally a "dragon" or any sort reptilian creature for that matter, then you haven't been paying attention. The serpent was human-like, the only real difference being that humans were given souls, and the soul (bibically) is what separates us from the beasts.
Where are the hybrids today? look in the mirror...
See...it -seems- like you were responding to me here. This is where I jumped back in. Do you remember now? So, are you willing to own the claim that we're both running with...or not? I'm not arguing with you, I'm not debating with you. I;m not arguing -for- sopme other thing (least of which arguments you attempt to impose, lol). I'm simply asking you to do what any thorough, and intellectually honest person would do...with regards to their own claims. There are certain things that must be true..if this claim is true. Testable, falsifiable evidence presents itself. It must be present and accounted for....or else your interpretation falsifies your beliefs - by being correct. This is a hole you dug for yourself...do you want the opportunity to climb back out, or not?
