If your asking for knowlegde on the subject, I'd be happy to explain. If your asking so you can redicule me and the bible, I have no time for that.

Well, all I'd like to say is that some parts of Genesis simply don't make any sense to me...along with some other parts of The Bible.

And, just because I (or others) point out these things that don't seem to make sense, that doesn't mean that these conclusions are an attack on you personally.

(I try my very best to avoid ad hominems.)

I'd like to hear it...

Also, I'd like an explanation for the fact that Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 conflict each other.

I can dig it. But that doesnt nesessarily mean you should just leave it at that. It only means you should dig deeper for your answers.
And, just because I (or others) point out these things that don't seem to make sense, that doesn't mean that these conclusions are an attack on you personally.Of course it doesnt. Thats why I asked you your motive.

Oh, I try my best to dig for my own answers rather than be told what to think from a book.

And, of course, The Bible-as well as all of Mankind's other statements-is open for interpretation.

Has it occurred to you that those two chapters just MIGHT be describing two different things? Or two different approaches to the same thing?


You haven't even read it, have you?

I have. And would love to hear an explanation for the conflicting texts.

Have you read it?

I'm not being snarky... I'm serious...

They both describe the founding of the world and they conflict in the order that things were done during that time.

I cannot see how the Divine, as I understand the Divine, would have made such a basic and confusing error.

Yes, I've read it.

And the two differing accounts START and END in different places. One is COSMIC and one is PERSONAL.

Whether or not you care to believe it is irrelevant. Where's the conflict in accounts?
