What I found interestin' is when Eve said the serpent BEGUILED (seduced)me and I ate. We know a woman can't have a child by eatin' friut and Jesus told the pharisees who were half jewish,you come from your father the DEVIL! Could it be Satan got hold of Eve before Adam did and he got her afterwards?

So, women can't get pregnant from eating fruit, but they can from having sex with a snake?
I wonder -- why can't fundies take things like "you come from your father the devil" as a symbolic or spiritual message, instead of a literal genetic one? After all, if that was so, then wouldn't Jesus and Mary also be from the devil?
Pharisees were only half Jewish? No, they were completely orthodox Jewish, which was as much their downfall. Jesus tried to change that, but it appears the litiguous, power-hungry and self-righteous bastards made it right back into his perfect church.
Say... Mark Bryan really didn't think this one out, did he? If Satan as the serpent knocked up Eve, that means that the kid involved would be Cain.
Now, I know a lot of fundies think "the mark of Cain" are African features, but that's a matter for a different post. Is Mark Bryan trying to came Jews come from Cain?
...wow, no matter how I twist it none of this makes sense.
The religious material I subscribe to, mentions that Christ was the snake, and god raped Eve twice. So yeah, if god=Satan (with which I'm inclined to agree), Mark has a point.
Unless the devil shape-shifted into a human and then back into a snake, or something. Given what a sexist Adam was (he got upset with Lilith because she had the "audacity" to want to be on top), maybe Eve figured that Lucifer would be a bit more laid-back.
This guy's a pervert. I foresee him writing bad fanfiction in the future.
"We know a woman can't have a child by eatin' fruit..."
In fundieland, that probably qualifies you as a leading expert in the human reproductive system.
"Jesus told the pharisees who were half jewish,you come from your father the DEVIL!”
Being the biological progenitor is not the only way to be a father.
I mean, i have NO suspicion that my wife ever cheated on me, but even if she did, I raised these kids. They tell my jokes, they know my music, they ask me for money, they learned to drive in my cars…
I’m their father. Even if they’re not ‘my’ kids, they’re all my kids.
Also, I think Genesis would be WAY different if God didn’t find Adam and Woman in clothes, but instead found Adam asking ‘why is her tummy so big?’
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
