You do not know if it is a fairy tale or not. It's simply your opinion because of the lack of faith in God.The story of Adam and Eve is a fairy tale written by Moses to warn the children of Hebrew slaves about the dangers of losing your sanity for life to cults, the talking serpent a direct reference to the pharaoh who wore a serpent on his head, and "the breath of life" that turned Adam into a "living being" is a reference to the the ankh, an Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol meaning "life" or "breath of life" and is associated with life on earth, the afterlife, immortality, eternity, and divinity.
Its not a historical document.
You might as well be trying to convince me that God farts fiery winged angels out of the sky.
My God has no visible shape or material form, never diddled a virgin, and never became a man.
Your God ejaculates and with the the help of the Holy Ghost put his sperm into Mary, a virgin.
Got it.
Where can I sign up to throw my rational mind in the trash to become a believer in the ridiculous?
Is there an initiation ceremony? Candles and bells? How much does it cost, aside from my soul?
You mix up the reason the pharaohs wore serpents on their head. They wore serpents on their head because that was one of their gods they worshipped. The children of Israel did not worship the gods of Egypt.
The breath of life is denoted in the Discourses of Abbaton as our spirits that are placed into our physical clay bodies of the earth. Then, the breath of life is given to us to breathe the air. I accept this as it agrees with our scriptures. There is no reason to say Egypt did not have parts of the truth about God and the creation of the earth and universe. But, Moses did not take his knowledge from Egypt even though he grew up their. He had something called the Urim and Tummim that gave him revelations from God to write down what God had told Adam, Noah, Abraham and then Moses. Heck, much of our laws came from the code of Hammurabi, Moses, Jesus and others. The Constitution had stuff from France in it. Of course Egypt would have information from Abraham, Noah and maybe even Adam.
Your God is made of stone. Can't see or hear like idols. My God can see and hear me. He is a Glorified Man with a Son conceived by a virgin. However the sperm (seed) was taken from the Father, it was done by the Holy Ghost. No need for mankind thinking on how it was done. It was done so that there was no sin involved. Funny how those who really don't believe in God attempt to judge our God. It's downright strange and weird.
If you want to know the truth, then follow God in the scriptures on how to know. Pray, study, read the scriptures, meditate on them with only a desire to know if they are true, and be patient for the answer through the influence of the Holy Ghost. You cannot have a double mind meaning going through the process of trying to prove that God does not exist. You are wanting to know if He exists so focus solely on that and not your double mind. You lack wisdom, ask of God. James Chapter 1, versus 5 through 8.
