Comment Re:A Jew's perspective (Score 1) 2345
Honestly, from where I sit, it matters little. I've spoken to fundamentalists of several religions, including Christianity. From where I look at things, the fundamentalist approach is a dead end. There are verbs, nouns, scribe marks and the like in the Hebrew Bible which we simply do not know the meanings for. An interpretive view is the only option.
Well, it does to me, because within Christianity there is a lot of bad theology going around.
Also, what would happen if you compared the events of Genesis to other parts of the Old Testament? For example the Psalms which are full of references to creation and other people mentioned in Genesis 1-11. For example Noah in Ezekial 14,14 and 20.
