The Bible scholars you talk of.....were they alive back then?
Spoken just like a biblical fundamentalist: "nobody was alive 200,000 years ago to witness the evolution of modern human beings, so therefore, nobody really knows." Obviously, zandore, you've taken the "logic" of the literalists to heart, even if you disagree with them.
It's really a laughable argument because all they have to show in support of the Garden of Eden nonsense of some 6,000 years ago are the demented writings of semi-literate priests with their own agenda, aimed at illiterate goatherds. Hominid evolution is much better documented than that, but the tradition of illiterate goat herding and scheming, demagogue priests lives on.
