    how recent? And how are they posing as aliens when we haven't had any recent direct alien contact (that the public knows about)?

    I've heard the ancients did describe a lot of their gods as sky people coming from the heavens

    dont know how recent. i was theorizing off dudes point based on what u also cited (ancient people talking about sky people0 along with various other sources i've distilled and found common threads in.and there has been plenty people who have went public with stories of alien contact and there is of course the multiplicity of the gov't making secret alliances with alien beings who have been described by some authors as multi-dimensional beings.

    If the being wasn't a snake, how do you explain the Bible saying that ? punished it by having it slither around on its belly? Did he turn the being into a snake?

    i dont think so because later on in the curse you are referring to it/he/her was also told it would eat dust. snakes dont eat dirt.

    really cause the link aint working for me, somebody up it

    As man has developed technology and science to
    redefine much of our life, many Bible stories
    seem too childish for the sophisticated and
    educated minds of today.
    I am a Christian who has experienced a personal
    encounter with a loving Creator and a very real
    relationship with him. With this wonderful
    experience it is very easy, once touched by HIS
    love to simply accept many of the Bible Stories
    at face value as many Christians do. However
    there are some today who have tried to redefine
    these stories in disbelief and have even gone so
    far as to replace ? with space aliens as our
    creator. In light of these challenges to someone
    who desires to believe in the Bible, it has become
    necessary to re-examine these scriptures in light
    of modern technology and the literal languages
    used. In doing this, quite a different story yet
    consistent to the character and nature of ?
    unfolds.
    Two naked people- a man and a woman, a tree,
    an apple and a snake. Really?
    First let's look at the tree. The Hebrew word for
    tree used in Gen 2:9 has an emphases on the
    product from it's origin to be utilized in the sense
    of making firm or fasten, to close or seal. In this
    sense the tree is more of a door orgateway. The
    word for tree also has much in common with the
    Hebrew word for generations. It is how and why
    we get the idea of a “family tree.” With a trunk
    branches, leaves and fruit, this “tree” could
    symbolically be suggesting an opening to another
    dimension. With this in mind the two trees of
    Genesis, the tree of the knowledge of good and
    evil and the tree of life could represent pathways
    or dimensional portals whose entrance depends
    upon a decision of faith or disobedience in the
    form of self-reliance. This idea of dimensions, is
    also backed up by the statement Jesus made to
    Piliate at his trial as recorded in John 8:23 when
    he said he was "not of this world." The Greek
    word Kosmos is used for world and means the
    entire ordered arrangement of this universe
    which equals in a more modern term, Dimension!
    (see the tract If ? is a Loving ? then Why?
    for more details). The fruit which the Bible never
    says is an apple, is the catalyst that transforms
    man, time and space into a mortal, linear
    existence. This was never the intention of ?
    but the result of a wrong decision by man. (See
    The power of Blood for more details) Are we to
    believe that the initiator was a snake or a
    temporarily demonized one? Again, by going
    back to the Hebrew word usage, quite a different
    picture and claim can be made. Nachash, the
    Hebrew word for serpent means snake from its
    hiss. Its root word means to enchant or to
    prognosticate. The emphasis is on the action of
    the snake as being like a snake not necessarily
    that it is a snake. Dr. Henery M. Morris states in
    his book, The Genesis Record, that some
    (scholars) maintain that Nachash originally
    meant upright shining creature. This would give
    a whole new perspective to the "serpent". He is
    said to be more subtle that all the other creatures
    created by ? . Subtle means intelligence
    applied in a crafty or manipulative manner. This
    certainly is not talking about the reptile we know
    as a snake. In Gen 3 we get the illustration that
    because the serpent deceived Adam and Eve he
    would be made to crawl on his belly and eat dust
    for the rest of his life. Again by going back to the
    original language and redefining these words in
    light of 21st century knowledge, the story takes
    another very realistic twist. The Hebrew, “al
    gachown yalak” for upon the belly and life can
    actually mean, “from above a reptile,(as superior)
    from the issue of the fetus as being outside the
    belly you will continue on in your material life.
    Only in modern times could this scripture be
    understood for what it might imply. A superior
    reptilian form that carries on life outside of
    normal reproduction can be by the means of
    cloning! A seraphim is an order of angelic being.
    In word etymology, in Sanscrit seraph means
    reptile. Even Doctors Young and Strong’s in their
    Concordance’s of the Bible concur with these
    word definitions without drawing these rather
    strange conclusions! Dr. Spiros Zodhiates Th.D.
    comments in his Hebrew-Greek Bible about the
    word “cursed” in Gen3: “This word has been
    interpreted as meaning to bind (with a spell) to
    hem in with obstacles, to render powerless, to
    resist. Thus the first curses in Gen3:14,17, “Thou
    art cursed above all cattle, and Cursed is the
    ground for thy sake” means, “You are banned
    from all the other animals” and Condemned be
    the soil [i.e., it’s fertility to men is banned] on
    your account. In light of this possible meaning to
    the scriptures just who or what is this Nachash?
    Is this the image of the
    Biblical
    Nachash?
    The evidence is
    uncany! As a
    former member of
    M.U.F.O.N.
    (Mutual UFO
    Network a serious
    organization
    composed of
    professionals from
    the scientific
    community) and a
    U.F.O. researcher, the alleged information about
    these “Gray’s” line right up with this possible
    understanding from the scriptures. It is said: with
    an agenda following, that these “Gray’s are of
    superior intelligence having two brains. They do
    not possess sexual organs and have sensory
    organs that are somewhat atrophied. They say
    they continue on in life by transferring their
    conciseness to a cloned replica of themselves
    when damaged. They are reptilian in nature and
    have the ability to hypnotize or freeze their
    victims. They claim to have created mankind and
    are here to bring us up to the next level of our
    “evolution”. They are seen in a bright sudden and
    startling appearance from the skies. Their bodies
    also appear to shine in the dark. They are
    proclaiming to man that we are our own ? , that
    we must rethink our world-view to survive the
    coming catastrophes. They proclaim a
    philosophy called Theosophy and claim to be
    aliens from Zeta Rectili in Orion’s belt. They are
    recorded all throughout history as the “wee
    people”, “ fairies” and “goblins” of old. There
    are even depicted on pottery and cave drawings.
    What really happened in the Garden of Eden can
    be explained better in these modern terms. What
    is really important is what is still happening with
    the Nachash today! They say they are aliens, The
    Bible says they are Liars, Deceivers called
    Demons!
    II Th 2:9 “Even him, whose coming is after
    the working of Satan with all power and signs
    and lying wonders...” Signs and lying wonders
    means in the Greek, that a sudden and startling
    sight in the skies bearing an ethical message
    contrary to ? is given! We are warned that in
    the end times a great deception would come upon
    mankind from the skies!. II Th 2:11 “And for this
    cause ? shall send them strong delusion, that
    they should believe a lie:” Why does this
    happen? Because in context here, they reject the
    truth. If you will not believe the truth, you will
    believe a lie. II Th 2:10 And with all
    deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that
    perish; because they received not the love of the
    truth, that they might be saved... That they all
    might be damned who believed not the truth, but
    had pleasure in unrighteousness. Unrighteousness
    is better rendered as a wrong belief. It is not just
    the actions of these people, but what they put
    their trust and faith in that caused them to act that
    was wrong. “Had pleasure,” means a hopeful
    expectation. Who do you believe? What do you
    put your trust in? You are no different than Adam
    or Eve. There stands before you two choices, two
    paths, Two trees. One based on Faith, one on
    Self-Reliance. What is the truth? Jesus said, “ I
    am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes
    to the Father, but by me.” Only Jesus bridged the
    gap between these two dimensions by
    accomplishing the reverse and opposite of what
    happened in the Garden at Calvary! He did it for
    you! John 3:16 “For ? so loved the world,
    that he gave his only begotten Son, that
    whosoever believes in him should not perish,
    but has everlasting life.” The Nachash were
    liars from the beginning and are still lying to
    mankind today! They pretend to be “Aliens”
    when they are actually the fallen Angels who are
    part of an ongoing rebellion against ? . But
    what will you believe? What do the “aliens” give
    as hope? Their brand of reality? A personal
    Loving ? offers a place in his family as one of
    his children to be joint heirs with Jesus for
    eternity! All you have to do is humble yourself
    before this loving ? and receive his free offer
    of grace. Jesus stated :Rev 3:20-21Behold, I
    stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my
    voice, and open the door, I will come in to him,
    and will sup with him, and he with me. To him
    that overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my
    throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down
    with my Father in his throne”.
    IN prayer ask Jesus into your life and begin to
    experience and know for certain the Living truth.

    Don't ? about it, that's how it was copied and pasted, I'm not going to put up a more proper structure because I ain't ? ' with that and don't feel like giving it the time. It's pasted for you to read, 5-7 minutes of your time. tl;dr, too bad.

    Some people take that metaphorically though as the snake eating dirt meaning that it's on it's stomach therefore face first into the dirt. Sort of like saying someones going to taste the concrete when you simply mean there face will be kicked into the ground.


    Anyway ? listen to this man, he knows his ? .

Adam was not just one person marked from other humanoids by having the 'breath of life" (neshema) which is the animating principle of man and the consciousness (spec. the ability to make something out of nothing) that seperates the Adamic man from other humanoids and animals. also the words "male and female" in hebrew are zakar and nekevah which do not simplistically translate as gender specification but they are more akin to the concepts of yin and yang.

    I might need a hebrew bible or something that gives a real translation then to try to see if it makes any sense to me

    idk but i know the dust was said to be composed of is the same hebrew word for dust that the serpent was cursed to eat. afahr means earth but it also means ore which is interesting to me being that human flesh is basically the same as the earth right down to the fact that the same trace minerals which make for optimum crop production are the same ones we require to live. the water ratio is the same to. Adam = Adahm in Hebrew and Adahmah = (planet) earth in Hebrew. Adam is a masculine noun, Adahmah is feminine. Something to think about...

    I'm telling you when you got eyes to see that book is deeper than you could possibly imagine.

    more proof other people were already on earth
    gen 4:13-16
    And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment [is] greater than I can bear.

    Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, [that] every one that findeth me shall slay me.

    And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should ? him.

    And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.

    who are these other people that he was afraid of? and if eden was point zero concretely then how was the a LAND OF NOD? this implies that there were people there and obviously a culture and civilization independent of the parameters of eden. it reads later on that he found a wife there as well which addresses the asinine ? jokes on here

    i think the eat dust thing may be people overcomplicating it. does every line need to be literal and meaningful? maybe he meant it like when you tell a ? to "eat ? ".

    perhaps. there is a lot of slang in the tanach. like for instance somebody tried to get the drop on samson by going to his woman to find out some intel on a riddle he layed on them. basically if they guessed it right he owed them some clothes and sheets- 30 sets. so when they got the answer outta her samson says: If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.

    lol..i allways thought "plowed with my heifer" was some cold ass ? to say.

    cain is kahyeen in hebrew which means possession. what precedes a sense of possession? ego. the adahm species was made to be a steward over the physical creation and manager of the spiritual realm. the neshema or the breath of life was the animating force of the adamic species in the image of the YHWH elohim in that it has infinite potential to create. all humanoids on the earth wasnt like that. back kahyeen(cain) and his broher hahvel (abel). hahvel means breath. a sense of possession killed the creative will. b'raysheet is not talking about some the earth is 6000 year old jive, its layers and layers of stuff there.

    If we look at the story of creation in the bible as a factual peice of information then it makes no sense at all and contradicts most of what we know about modern biology but if we look at it as an another religious creation myth then we can non-subjectively analyz ite as a peice of lititure and nothing more....
    Eve had sex with both of them.

    I find it hard to believe ? would be fine with mass ? well maybe he would I mean Noah had to repopulate the earth as well. The problem is it would be impossible to have such a high amount of diversity and population among a species from only two people. Infant mortality rates, gene contamination and homogeneity as well as a whole lot of other factors would take place

    In reality we are all related (distant) through creation;
    When we accept the faith of Christ and are baptized into Him, then we related through the Spirit.
