Fundamentalist Christianity: Specifically literalism, beginning with Adam and Eve.
@rinkydinkydoink There is so much more to it than meets the eye. Plus, the bible in my opinion has been tremendously edited. I believe Enoch, Jubilees, The Dead Sea Scrolls and so on should all be a part of it. I realized there are other versions with those additions after doing further research.

Interesting. I'd like to see all of the edits/revisions/rewrites/different translations from beginning to end. I wouldn't understand any of it but a symposium of respected biblical and lay scholars might.

@rinkydinkydoink Rather I should say omissions. KJV omitted a lot, but I still enjoy it. I think they were omitted for simplicity purposes Which doesn't make much sense as it is still pretty complicated regardless of the bastardization of it due to humans thinking they know what's best for the masses. Idk, that's my interpretation of it. I'll stand corrected with further debate and evidence. I really want the Ethiopian Bible. It has 88 books in it. Lol I am a curious spirited person.

@rinkydinkydoink Thank you. I try. I know I don't have all the answers and I thrive on learning, researching, communicating and listening without judgement.

Keep looking - seriously! There are some truly funny people on SW. My "humor" is a rehash of something old Ed Sullivan standup comics said decades ago.
