You raise a good point. My main line of reasoning is if someone says "Well,
that's just a myth" or "That's outdated, science has disproved Genesis," not
someone who misinterperates the fact that Genesis creation is literal rather
than a metaphore. Then again taking too much of the Bible as a metaphore
could also cause major problems, but that's a whole different can of worms.
