You continue to offer confident interpretations of Bible stories. In this case, you pronounced that the Genesis characters who live a long time are written of as real people. You continue with your unsupported assertion that these are meant to be literally true stories.
Do you draw this conclusion from any sort of reasoning? Or is it just a whim that you have?
Lots of Christians don't think the Bible stories you refer to are meant as accurate history. Your interpretation disagrees with them. Why do you think they are wrong? What is it about their reasoning which is unpersuasive to you?
Do you think that the opinions we offer should be supported by historical facts and scholarly sources? Or do you think it's enough to just make it up?
