But if the creation accounts in Genesis 1–2 are in fact - TopicsExpress



          

But if the creation accounts in Genesis 1–2 are in fact archetypal narratives that were never meant to be read in this kind of thoroughly rationalistic yet imaginatively impoverished way, the trouble would not only be that we have often viewed the empirical data through the distorting lens of philosophical materialism. It would be that we have also read Scripture through the distorting lens of biblical literalism and modern philosophical foundationalism. The moment we allow that there are many different ways of narrating truth, including mythopoeic ones, we realize that the question of divine deception only exists as a live problem for unbending literalists themselves (and mythopoesis must be carefully distinguished from mere fable, parable or spiritual allegory).
