Quote:How to read the account of the fallNeeds more Ents
390 The account of the fall in Genesis 3 uses figurative language, but affirms a primeval event, a deed that took place at the beginning of the history of man.264 Revelation gives us the certainty of faith that the whole of human history is marked by the original fault freely committed by our first parents.265"

There was no talking Snake, that's a Metaphor for Satan. There was however an Adam and Eve, and there is an Original Sin, which means the Privation of Sanctifying Grace, as St. Thomas teaches, which is washed away in Holy Baptism.
God Bless.

“No matter what men think, abortion is a fact of life. Women have always had them; they always have and they always will. Are they going to have good ones or bad ones? Will the good ones be reserved for the rich, while the poor women go to quacks?”
