Then you don't accept genesis or any of the geneologies in the old testament. And if the old testament is that faulty (two of its bedrock stories have just been thrown out) how can you then even begin to argue for the new testament's validity as a divine document, as it's based of a declaredly false one?
That's what YECs* get that mainliners don't, if you reject part of the bible you admit there is no reason to accept any of it. Of course the fact that they themselves forget this lesson with later bits of the ot is sublimely hilarious.
*Oh, for a non YEC you do spout a lot of bullshit that'd be accepted in their circles.
PS do you eat shellfish or wear clothes of mixed fabrics? Do you sacrifice livestock to yhwh at passover?
Your hypothesis seems to be flawed, as it is based on incorrect premises. I don't reject those things in Genesis (as I mentioned before), nor do I reject any part of the Bible that I am aware of.
As to your post script, no I do not. Do you understand that the old covenant was made with the people of Israel? And even for someone who is of Jewish nationality, that this covenant was made complete with the new covenant of Christ? Do you still pay on bank loans, which you have completed?
Edit to add: I also do not believe that the O.T. is "that faulty" or to be thrown out. You may find Christians who do disregard or throw out parts, but just because one isn't a YEC, doesn't mean that is what they are doing. I very much still incorporate these things into my theology. I just see it in a different light than a YEC.
