And what's fascinating when you read the Bible
and this created a lot of problems when people start to realize this in the late 19th century is that there are actually multiple stories of creation in the bible the world essentially gets created twice adam and eve get created twice so in the first story of creation adam and eve are created together and the second story eve is created out of adam
And those are both in the Old Testament.
Yes, those are both in, literally, if you go back and you can go read the first book of Genesis, and you'll read both of those stories.
And you can always tell someone who, in my opinion, is a fraudulent priest, because they'll tell you, no, no, no, no, those stories are actually the same story.
They're the same story.
And actually, you know, the second story is just maybe adding some details to the first story.
No, they're actually totally different stories.
They're completely different.
They have completely different understandings of how the world works.
There's also different stories of the flood in there.
The ark is built twice.
And you can go back in time, just like the Greek myths were retold multiple times, these stories were told multiple times over time.
And we can go back actually before the Hebrew Bible and find those stories in Babylon, in Acadia, in the Sumerian past.
When this was discovered in the late 19th century, it created a crisis because at that time, the Christian church, all its various branches, had based itself on the Hebrew Bible.
And it said, this is the beginning of time.
Well, if it turns out the Hebrew Bible is itself based on earlier stories, what happens to our stories?
Now, the answer you could say is, well, it just shows, right, that we're getting deeper and deeper and deeper into the story, right?
There's no problem here.
But instead they panicked and they said, no, no, no, we've got to figure out how to shore this up.
