It's written in the form that was most common to the times. It commenced shortly before the coming of Jesus who was proclaimed to be that savior. I don't see how scientifically disecting the events described will disprove the validity of Christianity.Except for this story supposedly actually happened and thus is subject to real-world scrutiny.
If, for just a very brief moment, we grant the supposition that Genesis was divinely inspired, why was the original text modified in the centuries after its original composition? No true believer is here to answer this (Derick is gone, of course), and, so, feel free to fill-in on their behalf.
