How could I know this since book of Genesis never said that the serpent was Satan? Also the serpent was cursed to crawl on his belly all the rest of his days, but in the book of Job, Satan is still walking around and chatting with God as if they’d never had a falling out. Job 1,7 And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

Except the parts where Paul mentions he met a guy that visited third heaven and the fact that we have many Jewish and Christian books with that kind of cosmology - but for some reason it's all on your ignore list.

LOL! The old "metaphor" cop-out.

You mean to say that I and everybody else have no evidence that anyone climbed Mt. Ararat in ancient times or had any knowledge about air pressure. I mean if you're making up bullshit why not say that they had hot air balloons in which they flew around and gathered all sorts of knowledge - I mean why not? They were not stupid - as you say - and they certainly had the tools to do it.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
