Yeah, pretty much my take on it too. May as well argue about Gandalf and Aragorn, or whether Star Wars is more true than Star Trek.
It's my belief now that Adam and Eve, as described in the Bible, are mythological inventions.
The agricultural revolution had already begun before the Biblical timeline of Adam and Eve.
The first proto-civilizations had already appeared on the scene before the Biblical timeline of Adam and Eve.
Human beings had already migrated to the American continent, Australia, and over Africa, Europe, and Asia.
The first pre-written language system of writing using symbols had already happened. There were human beings on Earth who were already speaking a language which was the predecessor to proto-Indo European, the language family which English, and most other European languages, and some others, have descended from.
The natural history of this Earth, and the picture we're developing of this Earth and the the development on it of homo sapiens and our emergence as the people we are today, is a picture which quite simply doesn't have in it an Adam and Eve in the Biblical sense. It doesn't have a Flood of Noah either. These things appear not to have happened, period.
Paul was talking about Christian women of his day and used Eve to keep women down.
No authority for you! Females are NOT to be trusted. They need to be barefoot and pregnant!
The only apostle who never met Jesus, who participated in killing the disciples of Jesus, (and who apparently was a virgin) got to determine the rules for the Christian Church. Hmmmm?
I hope she is resurrected. How else will we see what a hot woman looks like without a bellybutton?
or, the "hot man" without a belly button. Unless, of course, Jehovah made them both with belly buttons, so they would know how their children's ones should look.
