More like a slap at thin air as it totally missed it's target. Seriously guys, if you think there's any point made there you're deluded.
Dotard - that's the fact of the matter - read and understand dude - don't believe the lies.
1. Why list rivers in the story of Genesis? (See Gen 2:10-14) You don't put an allegorical event on the map. Why discuss geneology to Noah (Gen chapter 5)? These are the kinds of details you don't go into when the entire story is meant to be taken as allegory.
If you take most of that stuff to be literal you have to be smoking something, in my honest opinion. The world and animals (including us) exist... there's a grain of truth in that too.
2. Yahweh told Moses that he'd created the universe in six literal days (Ex. 20:11).
Nothing literal there
3. The Bible lists the genealogy of Jesus and traces it back to Adam (Luke 3:38).
Yeah it's to prove something to the Jews. Tracing back to Abraham - yeah. Adam... bit of a joke. We're all descended from the first aren't we?
4. Paul believed in a literal Adam (Rom 5:12-14). Jesus seems to as well, though he doesn't call Adam by name (Mark 10:6).
I believe the fall explains our natural state beautifully as well. It doesn't mean I think it's literal.
5. If Adam and Eve never existed, how'd "the fall" happen then?
You've got to be kidding me? You're an atheist literalist then? Makes me laugh kinda. It's a story dude. snakes don't and never have talked. There never was a tree of knowledge of good and evil. Sorry to break it to you. Please try not to be too upset
