Archaeology of the New Testament

Ah, apparently you're feeling guilty about some secret fetish of yours or something, and you hope to cover it up by these reactionary tantrums.

In any case, there is some legitimate debate on the translations from early Hebrew to Koine Greek and finally into English of the terms used for Adam and Eve, for those without neurotic obsessions.

It is also important to remember that universalism is implicit in the idea of monotheism, and the early Hebrewism is universalist and not to be conflated with the later 'Judaism' created by the Babylonians and the birth of the racist cult started by Ezra, that Babylonian Jews were more 'special' than other Jews and constituted a 'Master Race' among Jews.

Nope. It is not legitimate debate. It doesn't matter that Adam's name is also a word in Hebrew, in the Genesis story, Adam and Eve are both individual characters. In the play "The Importance of being Frank and Earnest" the two main characters are Frank and Ernest. They are individual characters, despite also being metaphors.

Do Methodists have to believe Adam and Eve were real historical persons?​

Methodists do not have to believe Adam and Eve were literal, historical people to be in good standing. Methodism, particularly within the United Methodist Church, emphasizes theological freedom, often interpreting Genesis 1–3 as archetypal, symbolic, or "truthful myth" that explains the human condition, rather than a literal scientific or historical account.

Nope. Both "blacks" and Jews obviously felt that their respective egresses from slavery were a huge mistake, and rushed to get back into obligatory obedience with the DNC.


You do not get to determine what is standard Christian theology.

Standard Christian theology also includes children who are not saved ... not being saved, as cold as that might seem.


I notice that you made darn sure to include the "if", so that you wouldn't have to logically justify your faith beyond saying "it's just what I believe."

Life isn't like that! Sometimes you have to chose a side!

Good standing in the denomination! Outside looking in ,in Salvation!
That's just a So called Christian Social club!
If religion doesn't bring you Salvation,you might as well just go to the Ball Game! You're wasting your time in that church!
