I did read it. I've read the entire Bible. Listen, the bible never says "This is metaphorical" it never goes to far as to imply it, most of the time.

Not many books take the time to explain to you their metaphors, much less tell you where to find the metaphors. In fact, I'm pretty sure none of them do. I doubt very much that you've read even the good parts of the Bible. That's probably why you have no capacity for appreciating it.

Adam and Eve was part of The Book of Genesis, it was all metaphorical. C'mon, people! Read the damn book!
It's a great piece of literature, and why you would ignore it because of its association with religion is beyond me.

Yes. The bible is also in my opinion, completely metaphorical.

It doesn't say it has to be metaphorical. It's something that you have to figure out yourself.

I was sick for about a week. I had no books, so I sat down with the bible. I read from one cover to the other, skipping none. There's even some good love scenes in there :D

Any book that contains a metaphor usually has 'time' to simply say "metaphorically" or "hypothetically". However, I understand what you're saying. I find the bible itself, as literature, to be an uninteresting read. When something forces you to dig out specific "good" parts, then it's not very good anyway.

In a book that large with that many authors, there are bound to be some bad parts, but I see what you mean. On the subject of metaphorically or hypothetically, you're obviously misunderstanding. If the entire book or story is a metaphor for something else, they're not going to point it out to you. I don't mean little things like "He metaphorically took the bully by the horns."

Some one should tell LemurDeCatta about this.

The answer is simple. Adam and Eve were dinosaurs. With so little people, there was a lot of incest. We eventually became what we are now.

My theory has dinosaurs so it's better than yours.

Mine says that they were handicapped fish.

Did you spend a half of a second reading what the hell the topic is about?

[Jaymz]

Im religious but I believe in evolution... Do I win?

GOD CREATED EVIDENCE AGAINST HIS EXISTENCE TO TEST YOUR FAITH.

I'm pretty sure the bible says Jesus personally went around planting dinosaur bones or something like that.
