Was Eve Really A Woman? by freecocoa(f): 3:11pm On Aug 07, 2015
"And the lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon adam, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, this is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh, she shall be called woman because she was taken out of man"
Genesis:2:21-23.

I came across this and was wondering, because I know that the DNA in the rib when used in creating a clone, will give a replica of the original rib owner, so how come a woman was created out of a man's rib?

Please Bible people help me out here.

This is what happens when you try to use science to explain religion.

Someone will soon tell you that the ways of God are not the ways of man. That some spiritual things are too deep to understand grin

The same way Moses split the whole ocean using a walking stick, the same way Mohammed heard his food talk to him in his native language.

What do u need explanation for?
1. You were explicitly told its a woman that was created.

2. You know fully well Eve gave birth to children - a man cannot do this.
3. Obviously you're not aware that gender determination (male or female) depends purely on the MAN, the genes for bearing both male and female offsprings are present in the man

You see, when you bring the God factor into an act, you must be willing to think outside the box of the scientific to understand how He does what He does.

God is a spirit, and a supernatural being. And even though He created scientific laws to govern and order His physical creation; He himself is not bound by them.

You don't demand a scientific explanation for all the actions of a supernatural being who can suspend, by-pass and modify scientific laws at will to do what He wants to do.

You want us to explain the acts of a supernatural God for you, but you're not willing to think outside the box of the scienific. That's like asking someone to calculate the area of a circle for you, but you insist he must use L x B (lenght x breadth) -the formula for the area of a rectangle.

How do you explain how God made grown adults at the Tower of Babel learn, understand and immediately begin to communicate in a new language in a split second, when He confused their languages? You can't explain it without thinking outside the small box of the scientific.

As long as you cocoon your mind to believe only the physical realm exists and is governed only by scientific laws; you will have more questions than answers about the acts of a supernatural God.

And your questions will seem smart to you. But they are actually as ignorant as asking someone to calculate the area of a cirlce for you but he must use the formula for the area of a rectangle.

Shalom!

Everyone here knows what this is.

Let me just tell you that anyone who have had personal experience with God can not change his/her mind because of what they read here. Stop making mockery of people's believe even if it's within your right and all. Your reasonable so just think about it. It's just like when you read threads created to mock feminism. What comes to your mind? I just couldn't hold myself from saying this.

1. A woman created by taking the rib off a man and inserting into a moulded structure, I'd like to know how this happened, as it is still biologically impossible.

2.I don't know that she gave birth to kids.

3. How is that relevant in the discourse? To make a baby, you need egg and sperm, so?

You first have to understand that am not trying to change anyone's mind, I am merely asking questions.

When I see threads mocking feminism(which is on per second billing here) I try to explain or debate to help for a better understanding, in the end I respect everyone's choice to be here or not, I certainly don't tell anyone not to open any threads on the topic.

Am not telling you not to open threads about such matters, your very free to. If it's that you really want to learn, then no problem. If it's about sarcasm, then think more about it as your a very reasonable person.

You talk about ignorance yet came up with the analogy of circle and rectangle,when you are actually the one wanting to calculate the area of a circle with the formula for area of rectangle.

You do have to realise that I don't have the same religious beliefs as you, therefore you don't have to expect me to think like you, if you want to educate me, then you certainly have to give ears patiently and answer my questions and convincingly too.


How hard can that be to understand?

It can be about anything but the end point is to educate us all.

This can not 'educate' any real Christian (there are fake xtians) just like no preaching will ever make you change your mind (just like you always say).

You are not sure any preaching can't change my mind, unless you have concluded that there's no convincing proof for me of his existence.

Bro kratoss , the bible didnt do any harm . The harm is the modern day p..astors and preacher.s . How do u think the world will be if the laws of the bible is followed by everyone ? If so, then you wont panic when u forget ur phone in the taxi coz everyone knew the law says " dont steal" , then no man will seduce your wife since they know the law says " adultery is bad"

Thats just the fact .
