James Anderson of Analogical Thoughts has a nice post on 12 prima facie reasons for taking Adam to be a genuine historical figure, as opposed to a myth or metaphor.
Speaking of James Anderson, there is another James Anderson you should check out: the James Anderson of Evidential Faith. And while I’m plugging my friend’s blog, I should also direct your attention to another one of my friend’s blogs: Chad Moore’s Bookesmore.

The problem I have with this, is that it is even needed!
If someone had suggested to me that Adam was a mythical person, I’d have laughed! And then, after realising they were serious, I would tell them to shut up and read the bible!
Other than that, congratulations on your shameless plugging of your friends’ blogs!

Scott,
I might expect non-Christians to say such things, but it is sad when Christians say such things. But even theological liberals are people, and they deserve an answer. 🙂
And yes, it is shameless plugging. That’s the prerogative of having your own blog!
