| Apr 17, 2022 at 16:10 | comment | added | user36337 | Having said that, I love the fact that you are open-minded and not scared of thinking things through! And I’m pleased to see that someone else is exploring a Xn cosmology that includes other species on other worlds. But was it the author’s intention for us to pick 4 vs from Gen 1-4 and use it to mould (or substantiate) our thoughts on a topic..? #savibes | |
| Apr 17, 2022 at 16:07 | comment | added | user36337 | Um - there’s a guy on this site, his nom de plume is something like Soli Deo Gloria, who commented once about not trying to make scripture fit the mould of your (our) ideas.. I think he had a good point, although we disagree in some respects. But I sense another instance here, if I may respectfully say so. Genesis is a literary unit - certainly Gen 1-12 at any rate.. I feel like your cherry-picked verses in your question expose you to leading yourself up the garden path..? I see your flow of ideas.. but was that ever the writer’s intention? Is it not you agenda driving this process..? | |

| Apr 17, 2022 at 15:52 | comment | added | user36337 | I think the answer is in the ensuing verse: So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27 So there is a duplicity (in a positive sense) in God that mirrors the duplicity in humankind, male and female. It would not be a stretch, considering the rest of scripture, to understand that to be the intimate relationship between God and Jesus. | |
