I am wondering what other people think about this.
Does humanity need to be saved?
Are we really separated from the one who created us? (if you believe we were created)
For example, is the Garden of Eden an account of the original sin that separated us from God?
Or is it a metaphor for the human condition of "imperfection."
Or was it a story of hope for disillusioned Isrealites during the exile?
Any thoughts?
