I find the creation story actually has more depth and importance when it's taken as mythology, and not as a literal record of events.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09002997517784638068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080372433953859587.post-35442011329696823962010-06-01T09:52:10.929-04:002010-06-01T09:52:10.929-04:00Susanne,

More willing to share and not have a claim or 'mine, all mine'. I don't think I could do that.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09002997517784638068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080372433953859587.post-33464058313288147202010-05-31T13:42:40.737-04:002010-05-31T13:42:40.737-04:00I'm enjoying reading these posts.

I think the creation story has so much depth, it speaks volumes about human experience and how people have understood reality.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11320601087412404116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080372433953859587.post-51477081023564771282010-05-30T16:59:16.908-04:002010-05-30T16:59:16.908-04:00This is a great post and a reason I don't like...This is a great post and a reason I don't like polygamy. Sure it was practiced by godly people, but I still don't think it was God's ideal. I'll never be convinced you can be "one" with someone when you know they are off "being one" with wives 2,3,4, etc. and maybe even a concubine, right-hand possession or mistress. It's heart, soul, mind and body...not shared with others, but one man and one woman joined together in God's eyes. <br /><br />Thanks for this great post!Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03115294023069458287noreply@blogger.com
