  • You have to realise alot of stuff in the bible is abstratctual, in Old Hebrew "Adam" is a collective known for men in general, and "Eva" is a collective known for women in general, the word that "sou" is derived from in modern times, actually means "mind" in the proper translation.
    Its small things like these that put a whole new spin on things and can actually make some scenes out of the bible make more sense.

    Also, we all know how every event in history has a dozen retellings based on who you ask, and do keep in mind that the bible was put down by human beings who unconsciously put in their own interpretations here and there, add onto that the thousands of translations it has gone through over the centuries and the chopping and changing of it by the Romans just before they made it their state religeon, youve got a text that might be radically different than the actual event

    I tend to take most bible stories with a pinch of salt, its the overall message i think you should follow

    • wtf no adam and eve did not represent all men and women they represented two specific people who had their fucking age of death recorded along with all of their sons and daughters and all their sons and daughters.

      they lived to be like 800 years old. I fuck you not go read the bible yourself.
