    Why do so many Christians not know that Lilith was the first woman? And why does no one know of the lore that says that she was created from the earth as was Adam as opposed to being created from his rib?

    There were many people before Adam , Adam is a spiritual being . A new beginning for humankind . Therefore who cares about Lilt.

    I don't. I'm not a Christian. This is my polite way of trying to inquire as to why Christians (especially those in the south) take the bible as fact without question, especially in light of things not included.

    Why don't you make a thread named "Is the bible the word of God" then?

    I'm glad you brought this up as I was just talking
    with someone about this the other day. She was of
    the same opininion as you, although I'm not so sure.

    I did do some research on it, but came up with nothing of
    what I would regard as substantial. Can you enlighten me
    on this subject, like any scripture, or other sources?

    I'm inclined to think this is an excuse for the feminist movement.
    How far off the mark am I?

    I am sure they have (had) questions, just not the same ones as you think they should.

    probably because what you quote doesn't come from the king james version.

    You realize this is just a big myth for many Christians? And that its support is sketchy within Judaism also?

    It's not exactly biblicalogical. (NW)

    Yes, I realize that. That's exactly what I don't understand.... how come some of the faith take the bible to be EVERYTHING, yet so much was chosen to be excluded from it. Wasn't the bible written by God through men? Doesn't that mean that people are seeing a partial "truth?"

    Do you realize that the entirety of Christianity is a big myth for many of us?

    Bibliological is a bit of a misnomer now isn't it? haha.

    You mean like whether or not the drapes and curtains match?

    And then?

    Not for me though.

    Bring your Biblication. You're arguing that Lilith is proof of the dumbness of Christianity, but Lilith isn't based on anything Christians really believe in. So: so what? Adam might have had a pet leprechaun too, but it's not exactly in our version of the manual.

    Haha - oh, wait: that makes no sense. I do like my new word though.

    christianity has many versions, roman catholic is one of them, so is baptists.
    these two versions use two different types of bible and preach different doctrines. for example on the matter of "where you will go when you die"
    baptists divide this into two places heaven and hell, catholics on the other hand introduce a third place called limbo.

    this is probably the source of your confusion.

    Yes - she was black.

    I heard this from an esotericist (sp?).

    A believer would tell you that God prevented it from being in the final version because it's not truth.
