Hi All, i'm new here. I'd like to state for the record first, that I have by no means the scientific or mathmatical brains of some of you here - but i consider myself reasonably intelligent and like a damn good debate. I'll do my best.
What I find impossible to believe is that people in this modern world we live in find it easier to believe in the idea that we were all decended from ONE man who then had a nice little lady made for him from his rib. It seems infantile that a grown person would believe in this seriously. I have heard some christians saying that its not meant to be literal - in which case thank goodness!
however I just dont see how intelligent human beings feel that this is possible. I for one as a woman find the idea of being made purely for the entertainment and servitude of the man is a biiig stretch. It reeks of the time this religion was born - where women were second class citizens and they wanted them to stay that way.
