I have long wondered if the vestigial pelvic bones found in snake skeletons could be proof that there was once a serpent in the Garden of Eden who could walk and subsequently had that ability taken away? It has long been understood that the serpent used to be a creature capable of being spiritually possessed and somehow capable of speaking.
"And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life" - Genesis 3:14 KJV
This verse implies that the serpent would have it's ability to walk taken away. So perhaps God took the legs but not the pelvis so that there would be proof in the fossil record for the Garden of Eden?
And yes, I'm new. My name is Emily.
