LOL, why would I have to crack open a bible for that, that's a story you learn in sunday school. "Proper exegesis of scripture" is that the authors believed that Adam lived 930 years, all you're going on about now is apologetic bullshit. You outta try mustering up a little faith, stop looking for god in excuses and just believe. "We must" do nothing, but you might want to stop reading your fantasies into scripture.
"And all the days (except some other days, to the tune of billions of years as evidenced by modern science and here omitted) that Adam lived were nine-hundred thirty years; and he died" Gen5:5-Drich Expanded Version.
Well hell buddy if you're going to rewrite the big man's good book for him, I think you could do better. Hell, the original storytellers could have used a guy like you when they were dreaming this up. As an origins narrative for a specific group of people (which actually is what this story is, so you're half right) it's the usual shit. Fortunately for me (and unfortunately for you, I'm guessing) the people described here are not our ancestors. You're to be the smited, not the smiter, the "soul-less" (in your personal narrative, at least), not the glorified.
