Why I am not a Literalist
Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 are two different Creation stories. Some take them at literal value as written. Others see the overall message. God is the source of all love, life, and wisdom. God made man seperate from other animals. God allowed a free will paradigm which led to the Fall of man. But wait...thats in Genesis 3. Any other questions?
I am not a literalist, remember. I only see truth in the overall message of the story. Absolute truth, to be sure.
