LOL, you're just a bad host.

In the 20+ years I've lived here I've only had Jehovah's Witnesses come to my door once (at least, when I was around to actually answer the door)... I invited them (an older dude and a young lady) in and offered them glasses of water to drink. It's not like they could change my mind about this that or the other but that's no reason to be a douchebag towards people. We chatted for awhile, they left some reading material, and then they went about their way. They weren't condescending or threatening or rude or acting 'holier-than-thou' or anything of that sort.

So then shed some light, eh? Why even bother talking about what your Christian friends think of it, you're a Jew, you have "first dibs" so to speak.

Well, the Jewish faith has always believed that Genesis is just a fabrication created by the mortal writers of the Tanakh. It was put there because, apparently, if any man was to know how the Earth was truly created by God, he would go insane.

Also, we don't really have "first dibs", because while Judaism may have similar mythology, it's mostly a completely different religion.

Dude, your a fucking retard. It's not literal dumb ass. When he says "seven days" It's figuratively! The earth is 4.5 billion years old.

The Big Bang wasn't a literal explosion. Of course, it had nothing to explode into - it's just the easiest way we can picture it without losing our minds.

I was nice to the first one I ever opened the door to. Because I've never had a Jehovah come to the door until about a year ago. The problem was...because I was nice they thought I was interested.

So I said "not interested, bye" to the next. After that "not interested" SLAM. Now it's either "fuck off" or no words and a door in my face.

Shut the fuck up about losing our minds. No single piece of evidence will make anyone insane. Your religion is false.

You're an idiot. I've said this so many times before and I'll say it again, it is an original Christian belief that Genisis is a load of fairytales. It was never a belief that the universe is 4000 years old, the reason that dates are printed in the bible is because they have been manufactured by Creationists who know nothing about their own religion, so they throw it in there, thinking that Genesis should be taking literally which is the opposite of Christianity's original beliefs. So, you've disproved Genesis, who cares?

Yeah at this point I doubt you really know what you're talking about. The traditional Jewish view is that Moses himself authored the Torah. I only now just checked your profile -- you're 13 -- I don't know why I'm even bothering to reply to you now. What the Jewish faith has "always believed" is also a rather sketchy thing for you to assert because rabbis have disagreed with one-another for millennia. Seriously, have you ever even cracked-open the Talmud? It's ridiculous.

Also, we don't really have "first dibs", because while Judaism may have similar mythology, it's mostly a completely different religion.

I don't think you get the point -- Genesis is a Jewish text written for the Jewish community. The fact that people keep relating it to Christians and Christianity is kinda-sorta like how people associate rock music with white people even though the roots of the genre come primarily from what people would mostly likely call "black music".

I'm not allowed to even touch the Talmud or the Tanakh, I only really know what my parents tell me and what I pick up from shul. I guess I'm just being an ignorant moron, like most NG users on this subject...

They also were defended to eat the fruit of KNOWLEDGE, so the bible teaches you that KNOWLEDGE IS BAD.

And the serpent is only named as the serpent and never the devil and is also punished as the serpent. So how exactly could it be the Devil? He barely makes an appearance in the OT.

Not to mention that overrall God in the bible killed thousand people and the devil barely killed 10.

Also God is shown as a fucking douchebag in the bible. But because he's god it means it was the correct thing to do lol.

Of course it is a myth.

The writer could not have been present at the time of the universe's creation, so he wrote what he thought the origins of the universe are, and he also hid in symbolisms in there.

For example, the universe being 7000 years old is guessed by him because in the bible, the number 7 is treated as the ultimate number of wholeness.

"Let there be light" represents how two particles of matter, if colliding at a fast enough speed, could create a small, fast growing universe, which means it creates antimatter and matter.

Science buffs correct me, I've only scanned pages on this

Well, in Genesis, it says that God created the universe and Earth in 7 days. However, these would be days in the perspective of God so one day to God would probebly be a billion or so years, maybe much more.
This kind of debunks your whole theory right there.

The exact story of it I think it more or less hogwash though.

Of course it is, letting Abraham sacrafice his son to prove his faith is a great thing to do. Testing Job (something's spelt Joab) by killing his family, servants and cattle to test his faith is even better.
