My husband thinks the two stories in Genesis relating God creating man are not two parts of a writing style as some contend but two separate stories. One about creating men. Another about him creating God's chosen.
If you get a chance sometime read the book of Genesis through the creation stories and you will see what I mean.

I have several times as with the entire Bible. I now just stick to what counts the most prophecy and Jesus speaking. In the end times there will be many saying he is here or there. And much to show that there is another path. But science, the diggers and found items do have meaning. I really think that at the time of the Bible being written old and new the writers just couldn't express the numbers of the things they saw into word other than what they knew.
I don't discard the Bible I just see Jesus speaking on topic's more important
than the many other things the writers were saying. As for the Prophets, just to understand the whys and what to be alert to. In an era that mankind have a vast source of data/info at their finger tips and on TV.
Not that I won't do as you suggest, I will. But always remember I hold Jesus as my King, my salvation and my friend who stands closer than any brother could or would. Before science or any other info we have reveled to us. It is blind faith...
