>Um ACKSHUALLY it’s all an allegory chud.Why do modern Christians use this to defend the Book of Genesis being ahistorical when they would have been branded as a heretic in the Middle Ages for saying this? Historically the vast majority of Christians including major theologians believed that the events of Genesis happened as literally described and that the earth was only a few thousand years old. Jesus himself spoke of the events described in Genesis as if they were historical events. They might have all believed the story had a deeper meaning, but they still believed it was recording a historical event. Augustine straight-up claimed that pagans were frauds for believing the earth was older than a few thousand years (and with modern science we know the pagans were right about the earth’s age, not Augustine). There’s also the fact that the Torah scribes who wrote Genesis intended for it to be read as literal history, not as an allegory.Even if we accept the allegory explanation as true, then what is it all an allegory for? What did Jesus die for if Adam and Eve eating the apple didn’t happen? The whole biblical narrative only makes sense if you view it through a literal lens.
>>18452259Augustine said it was an allegory. And if an psychotic Algerian sex pest can say it 1,600 years ago then anyone, especially some Christian who just wants a reason to keep on going, doing more good for others, and living a pure life. Out of all the fucking people you can shit on, you find your time going after Christians? Go bully trannies or junkies. It's a better use of your time.
