Theology Based On An Allegorical Genesis

[fr0d0]

Your definitions of "literally" and "non-literally" are back to front. That's not a reassuring start at all.........

Right, so "literally" Genesis poetically describes the relationship between God and man. A-ha, so you're up to speed with my dad i.e. you're telling me you believe Genesis is not history. Great, we just reiterated the OP. Now onto the question at hand:

What does this mean in terms of the saviour of the world? Why did he die for you? What did he save us from, an ambiguous and confused poem that proves itself to be too futile to produce a sound theology that answers the question "what did he save us from"?

Back to front: yes definately to modern misunderstanding.

Poetically, not exactly. Literally theological, but I assume you knew this. But you say I'm on a par with your dad, which I clearly am not??

Jesus saves us from sin in this theological construct. Not some fabricated logical car crash of poetry/ pseudo science.
