I think the Garden of Eden was the basis for the Garden of Eden story. Almost every statement in your post are a distortion of the Facts. Real scholarship has moved the dating of the Biblical manuscripts back and back especially the NT texts. Early dating of the manuscripts destroys your arguments for myth creeping into the accounts. A.J. mentioned the book of Isaiah found with the dead sea scrolls, these give us an excellent opportunity to compare two copies of the same book almost one thousand years removed from one another. If your theories were correct then it would be expected that they would be completely different. The facts reveal that the two are virtually identical. Some words are spelled differently and a few other minor differences but nothing that would change the story. You talk about logic and evidence but then resort to name calling and innuendo. How mature. It makes you look like someone who does not want to be confused by the facts. Have a good day Greg
