Adam Quote by Madeleine L'Engle

“There is no way that you can read the entire Bible seriously and take every word literally. Contradictions start in the first chapter of Genesis. There are two Creation stories, two stories of the making of Adam and Eve. And that is all right. The Bible is still true.” quote by Madeleine L'Engle — Download Open image
