I don't know how to explain it any clearer to you. There are many descriptions of terrible sins in the Bible. Should it only contain love, peace, and cozy feel-good stories because it's the Bible?It's a history of the beginning of OUR world-- your world, my world. I guess you could say 'why would anyone write about the atrocities of Adolf Hitler-- how disgusting!! Our children shouldn't be exposed to such vile stories.' Then would you deny that it even happened? Since there have been different accountings, conspiracy theories, and interpretations through the years of what happened, why not just deny that it's even credible anymore? That sounds like how you have discounted the Bible. Please don't deny that you've totally tried to do that. So that brings a question to mind: How do Muslims believe the beginning of our existence came about? I would like to know how you came to your belief on this.

**By the way, any of you who want to criticize what I've just written, I won't be responding to insulting or snide comments. It's getting irritating trying to explain things over and over and get nothing through your heads!
