Re: Poor reading comorehension
It is twisting, because in Hebrew, when the word is deliniated, the intention is always meant strictly as a 24 hour period.

Re: Poor reading comprehension
That's a cop-out.
You simply cannot defend your position without deviating from the facts.
What you claim about science is not even remotely close to it. Now that your factless claims have been rejected by everyone you have approached with them you are going to invent an imaginary audience in which there is a silent majority who has fallen for your bullshit?
Lame.

Re: Not a Time-Line
So, instead of saying things that no one could relate to directly, he went with a talking snake and a magic tree and a woman made out of a rib?
Do you hear yourself?
If it were the case that God refrained from saying certain things because they would come off as nonsensical, he wouldn't have went with the Eden story as a substitute, which is equally nonsensical.

Re: ... truth... the image of Reality
Why are you still referring to perception as "truth"?

Re: dumb stuff...
1) How difficult was it for the Jews to recognize that the bible says don't act like the fornicating, women chasing, sexually promiscuous neighboring pagan societies that had to abort the fatherless babies that resulted from such behaviors?
Probably very difficult considering that the bible did not forbid unlimited wives (King David, for example) and never said anything about abortions or fatherless babies.
Some people are so ignorant and dumb that they cannot be corrected, even when the correction is obvious.
Tell us, is it cruel of God to show everyone but you that you are wrong, so that you never receive correction, reproof, knowledge or truth? Does He have a point in allowing you to miserably fail in every false claim you insist on making? Since you are unlearned and unable to be taught, wouldn't He be acting for His own amusement rather than for your or anyone else's benefit?
We have all witnessed how arrogant in your ignorance you are. The joke is over. There is nothing left to see. We aren't laughing.
Why does God need to repetitively show us something we already know? Your God is not kind to you.

Re: ... truth... the image of Reality
This is because Empirical Science exposes The Truth wuhich is the image of that ever unfolding Reality that sires Truth in the first place.
Substantiate this claim with tangible evidence.
