I don't particularly care what Steele & Thomas say. The Scriptures
refute you and them with their most plain and simple reading. When
someone says "But it doesn't mean that" and procceds to supply entire
volumes to explain away a clear, simple verse, you should be EXTREMELY
skeptical.

Nothing hinges on a literal reading of the Genesis record. And by the
