Or you can just call it a metaphorical fable that teaches about morality. You know, like everything else in Genesis.

Actually a good chunk of Genesis is not necessarily about morality. Most of that comes later.

I think the whole concept of original sin kind of sticks out in peoples' minds as a signficant chunk.

(Anonymous) 2015-10-25 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Original sin as Christianity understands it is not learned from the literal text of Genesis, as can be seen by the fact that other religions which use Genesis don't believe in Original Sin at all. That's interpretation.
And even if it were in the text, it's mentioned in about 3 lines out of 50 chapters. That's hardly a 'significant chunk'.

Some of Genesis.

John Calvin actually found the story of Joseph to be extremely worrying, since it basically involves a hero of the faith propping up a dictatorial regime that trades freedom for food. It's an interesting stance.

I read Fred Clark too. He's terrific, isn't he? :)
