I don't know what the Qu Ran says, but I know the Bible says there was no death before Ada and Eve. By reading the Bible, how to you reconcile evolution with that? Is the passage a metaphor as well?

Tradition has it that these books were written by Paul around 50 AD. Why are these considered valid interpretations of Genesis, written about 700 years earlier? Was Paul there before the Fall? How would he know? |

Inspired by God plus his testimony is reliable.

That's just hand-waving. Paul pulls something out of his butt and some folks believe it without question. Nice. |

And will animals be ressurected with everyone? Since in Christ all will be made alive? Or is it again possible that Corinthians is just referring to humans as well?

You just committed the worst sin imaginable - putting humans and dirty animals together in the same category. Didn't they teach you that we're super-dooper special creations, and the only reason the universe exists in the first place!  |

But thankfully I'm not expecting the Spanish Inquisition anytime soon.
OH CRAP! Here they are. Gotta run!
