I'm back. I had to "mull" over in my mind what Spiritsong was saying
in her prior input responding to my different truth statement. Okay.
Here is where I get really Windy, but I think this will at least help me gain a perspective as to where Spiritsong is coming from:

Different (?) Truths:

1) Adam and Eve: Handful of clay - woman - rib from man - real garden - real tree - real fruit (apple?) - real snake.

2) Adam and Eve: Still handful of clay and rib - still real garden -
no real tree or fruit? - some other happening within their spirits that
caused them to be disobedient and be banished from the good life intended
for them - snake (Lucifer or demon?) (actually on two feet and quite handsome and smooth-talking needed to trick woman). We still use the term snake for that kind of a man even to this day.

3) Adam and Eve: Evolution; millions of year; God intervenes. As you can
see I don't have much to say on this as biblical. Since Science
cannot seem to give us the defining link that would proove it, I think that
humans have been humans right from the beginning just as God created creatures and rearranged them, or tweaked them down to manageble sizes after the need for the dinosaurs. I digress....sorry.

I guess we could say these were three different truths...with the one truth within that says: God created us to be his children. We sinned.
Now we need Jesus to come and save us.

Stating all the above, I still choose to believe the original story, with the exception that I think the serpent was on two feet and quite handsome. Works for me. As childlike and mythological as it sounds; it is real for me and teaching me what I need to know.

Is this what you mean by different truths?

For me, there is no danger or feeling of threat to me with those kinds of
things in the bible. But when we start to question the authority of moral/immoral it is of great concern to me.

Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. He is love, mercy and forgiveness, and as I follow Him in scripture what comes across to me is: He doesn't want us to judge others, as with the prostitute, BUT He does tell her to go and sin no more, indicating to me that we as individuals must make moral judgments regrding our OWN lives.

IMO, He isn't changing the teachings of morality, or leaving them up to interpretation, but is not passing judgment on others. Judgement is left up to the Father. He teaches, in gentleness and leaves them to make
their choices.
