If the Bible is all fact, as you have repeatedly claimed, then how can their be two creation stories, Genesis 1 & 2?

They were created on the same day, Eve after Adam, I don't see what the big problem with this is.

That still doesn't change the fact God did a deal with Satan (the necessary evil). Thus my point being - Christianities definition of God is void.

Still, God still did a deal with evil.
Heh. 'has to ask permission'.

Well, you may find that a lot of people find Mary to be an objectionably bigoted slug. Hence so many people are only too willing to argue with him. Add his arrogance, ignorance, and all-consuming egocentricity, and I'm sure you can see why I for one take great pleasure in obliterating his arguments.

Neither did the Prophet Mohammed, and look how his religion has been corrupted.
That's a picky sort of point to make though. I don't agree with what you've said (I believe in absolute equality between the sexes that doesn't have to be justified by a church-compiled book), but cheers for saying it.

Ok, discussion. Wrong word to use and I apologise. I am not accepting the fact by faith because I have no faith in a book written by man (yes, I know the argument against it, the fact it is written by man and flawed is my faith). I'm not getting angry about it either, regardless of what you think. The question was raised that both cases of creation cannot be simultaneously true.
As to the property, FF has expressed views in the past that he considers women less than men, they should be subservient.
I find this view offensive, and I'll point out that I find it offensive if I wish.
God created one man and one women in the beginning. (I believe by faith.)
Women subservient to men?
Paul writes for women to obey their husbands "in the Lord." BUT, he also tells men to love their wives "even as Christ loved the church, and gave Himself for it." We should give them honour, "as unto the weaker vessel," meaning to respect them. They're NOT property. Jesus never viewed them as property. We shouldn't either.
