    bwahahahahah.....hilarious,
    I rather think 667joe's point is that the story that people are asked to believe is preposterous. I take 667joe's meaning to be that his objection to the idea of the creator (which you and others here propagate) is that accepting/believing it relies so heavily on credulity in the face of ancient mythology ~ or, put another way, relies so heavily on simply accepting the assertions about reality that you just so happen to make because you just so happen to subscribe to this particular religion and its literature.

    I don't think eye glasses are a necessity. They make it easier to read books like the Bible. But I don't think anyone is required to read the Bible, nor required to read any kind of law. Regardless of what the education system tries to impose nobody has to read if they do not feel comfortable doing so. God made us free and we can also speak if we choose to or not. I think it is important to listen though, although personally it is more difficult for me to choose not to listen and I suspect that may be by design and/or because of our fallen nature. One other point is to use caution when interpreting Genesis. You must be supposing a metaphorical interpretation when you allude to an Apple because the specific fruit is never mentioned in the Book itself.

    When we say "Apple" we are speaking allegorically.

    Eye Caramba!

    Fortunately my surgeon was better qualified!
    I've got to say it's the best money I ever spent.

    Rather listen to James Earl Jones' narration of the Bible--on slow speed.
