Tonight we talked again about the fall of man in Genesis 3. One interesting question came up about the whole story of Adam, Eve and the trees in the Garden. We the trees literal trees, did this story literally happen? Or is this a figurative story meant to explain the separation between God and humanity in terms that are simple and easy to understand? Is it necessary to believe one or the other? If we believe that it’s literal, why? Are there reasons that the rest of our faith rest on? If it’s figurative, metaphorical, or alegorical, how does that affect our faith? Does it change anything? What do you think?
