Subject: Are we all descendants of Adam and Eve? |
Bible Note: Radioman2, Thank you for that excerpt, I loved it. Our priest (R. Catholic) told us that the Catholic position is that all Bible text prior to Abraham is myth -- stories told to reveal certain truths. Perhaps Emmaus can shine light on whether this is actual RCC doctrine, or just the opinion of this particular priest. Either way, it seems dangerous to "throw out" or "recharacterize" sections of the Bible, because it does make it much easier to question the rest of it. reilly |
