-You do realize that the Biblical creation stories are not what are being promoted by the Church as explanations of how we came to be and even the Pope has accepted the Theory of Evolution as legitimate scientific fact. The only purpose these stories serve (yes both of them) is to try to explain to the people living in the year 1000 CE when they were written a comprehensible way to view creation. Through the process of Hermenuetics we view them today in modern Catholic society as merely metaphors. These were written for a certain audience thousands of years ago, and is not even an original Jewish story but copied from the Enuma Elish of Babylon.

According to Milton (who was admittedly living in the 17th century) Adam must have had microscopic and telescopic vision before he ate the magic evil fruit, because otherwise there’d be no point in God creating zillions of things that can’t be seen with ‘normal’ eyesight.

Goes to show, you can solve anything with logic…

Nooooooooooo, Creation was perfect!!! It was only the Fall who corrupted it all!

Even though of course the ‘Fall’ could only have corrupted it ACCORDING to the framework that BibleGod had supposedly defined earlier on … ;)

A&E might have triggered it but it was BibleGod who determined what the consequences had to be!

So if there is a Creator then the ultimate responsibility lies with this Creator. Even though believers won’t accept that of course. They prefer to live in their illogical and incoherent bubble.
