I was taught by Catholic nuns in the 1960’s that Genesis was an allegory - a teaching story for children to teach them about God. At no time were we told that the stories in Genesis actually took place. I am pretty sure that is the position of the Catholic Church for about 500 years? Why is it so important to your faith that the Adam character in an ancient story for children is really an historical figure? Is there more important things to work on in this world? Cure for Cancer? Helping the children at the border in child interment camps? Is an historical Adam really that important that you couldn’t continue living with your beliefs under the acceptance that Adam just might be just a character in an allegory beamed into the mind of an ancient writer by your God?
