This question is directed towards the majority of Christians whom don't accept Genesis as being literal, or ever having happened.
I know R&S is filled with fundamentalists and insane people, but this directed towards 'moderate' Christians.
So my question is. Why did God, have his son, killed and tortured for a symbolic sin commited by an individual that never existed? That's a huge theme in the New Testament.
So It's a fictional story about fictional people whom never existed. The flood never happened, Noah's ark never existed. Adam and Eve weren't real. It never happened?
Also, Jesus himself believed in Adam and Eve. Obviously, he must be the most important figure in Christianity, and if he is god as you believe. Then how could he do such a thing?
Why does god lie to you?
So, Do you have to really choose either creationism or Science (which is almost synonymous with atheism)?
Any sane, genuine person will believe Science, over creationism.
I've seen some moderate Christians justify the bible talking about the "Truth in metaphors". How it doesn't have to be true, or actually have happened, it just has to have a good moral at the end. And that is where the truth is.
But if we use that definition of truth The Little Red Riding Hood is also true.
So you're pretty much on your way to becoming atheists, Just take one step further.
