Well one retard nothing the Jews say about Genesis 1 jives with 'science' unless they declare everything metaphore. They have no state in orgins. they do not care how it washes out.
That said Again, the primary form of judaism that survived the destruction of the temple was Rabbinic Judaism which is the foundation of modern judaism. This is because the primary belief before then was with the teachings of the Sadducees. But they were blamed for the up rising of jerusalem in 68.
Why is this important? It is not unless you are concerned with what the God of the bible more specifically JEsus thought, and reached.
So then the question becomes what did jesus think about Rabbinic judaism and the pharisees?
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se...rsion=NKJV
Jesus pretty much takes a whole chapter above outlines their failures as teachers and guides for the spiritually minded and tells them they are going to hell for their teachings... The same core teaching you cant find anything wrong with...
Remember not all the jews were killed back then. they just (then and now) stop self identifying as a jew/rabbinic jew when they find God. Those who do not find God are the remnant or legacy of the pharisees. For jewish tradition they are an authority. for finding God, they will at some point in the near future.

Genesis 10 (KJV)
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
Genesis 11 (KJV)
11 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
what was beyond the earth? rather what does the term "whole earth" mean to a person who lived back then?

Funnily enough, atheists seem to pretty much all agree on what happened there.
Actually it show how little you understand of the faith/religion.
the fact that we can't agree shows how unique and diverse we are some given to greater understandings like this and other have other talents and strengths. What's most important and the part you don't ever seem to get is we are not judged by how much of this we know or can fathom. we are simply asked to do our best with what we have. sure some miss the mark but THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT OF ATONEMENT!

That;s some desperate shit.
Hey moron Act2 and luke 11 says we all can have a private line to God it not a drich thing. it is a christian thing. why else do you think this religion has lasted for so long despite of the works of people such as yourself? It is because God delivers on those private lines sport. God shows up for those who play by his rules and he shows no mercy to those who don't want to 'get it.'

God does not stray from what is written... all you need do is show me book chapter and verse where I am wrong. if you can't then it is you who is wrong.

But thank you for your concern.
wow all the dishonesty I pointed out and you feel your reputation will not suffer? what does that say about your peers? or what does it say about your honor here?what does it say about the level or desire to obtain truth? how can I repeatedly demonstrate a lack, or intentional failure of understanding like your supposed finding that God created Adam outside the garden and there was no need for a second narrative, when just two or three lines later he is laced right back in the garden you allude he had nothing to do with? yet that attempt at decite does not degrade you before others?
It is obvious you read everything how did you miss that? answer is you didn't.. you are intentionally trolling or grounding the topic.. Again that is a deceitful and dishonest practice that has been repeated at least 4 or 5 times this week!
I once held you to a higher standard than that. this puts you in line with some of the scummier people here. you don't care abot the topics or seeking the truth you are just looking for weakness.
what does it say to your peers when your accused weaknesses are beaten back and are forced down your throat by a person you hold in such little regard?
you: Ooo Ooo Drich Adam was created outside the garden so your whole garden narritive is moot..
Me: DENIED Troll! Read verse 15 forward! Adam was placed in the garden hence the need for the second narritive!
You: Ooo Ooo I don't understand the term "head of the church to mean the authority of God so even though it is clear the nazi's sought to make hitler the head of the church I have this loop hole and will press it to make you look stupid.
Me: DENIED TROLL! Your failure to understand common Christian vocabulary points to your lack of basic christian understanding. The Nazi's know more of what the head of the church signifies Here are two book chapter and verses that show what the head of the church means to all of christendom. here is a vatican example of the acknowledgement of what the head of the church means.. your loop hole just became a noose
Even if you rep is not hurt by being dishonest you peer must look at you last two failures against someone like me. Someone looked down and reviled upon someone you all constantly portray as not meeting the education standard for being seen as a rival intelect. as a BIG fail on your part. after all if you can't hold you own against a stupid christian, then how can you claim the intellect you pretend to have?
