Sometimes when debating with a Christian, I've objected that it's not only presumptuous for an infinite human to claim to know anything about an infinite being, it's mathematically impossible, because dividing anything by infinity yields an infinitesimal. We're zeroes by definition against the concept of an infinite deity. How can there by any truth at all in the sweeping all-inclusive certainties of the Bible?

And the answer I usually got was that God, being all-powerful of course, could fix it so that finite minds can grasp infinite truths and write them all down in the Bible in a way that preserves every bit of the original infinite truth. Because he's God, of course, silly.

But your modern interpretation of Genesis, Johannes, is a reminder that there is actually truth in the Bible, as long as people are willing to let it breathe, to allow Genesis to always be true by the simple expedient of honestly reinterpreting that ancient origin story in light of our modern understanding of our origins. Science doesn't rule out having an origin story, it only asks that it be grounded in reality. You can tell it with all the poetry you can muster as long as you tell the best truth you know.
