While that may be true in the circles you move in, that does not make it true for everyone. The Seed is not a mainstream name. There are many on this forum involved in Christian debate" who have not come across the name. And don't you find it odd that you make this claim while being ignorant of the original Protevangelum, which is extremely well known inside and outside the Church?

FYI when talking of the Seed of the Church, for most this references martyrs.
Please provide me one Christian who doesn’t know what is meant by The Seed.

Galatians 3:16 is sufficient.

Former Christian here, and 15+ years involved in Christian debate (both as a believer and unbeliever), and I have not heard the term in that context before, either.
Have you followed the conversation sir?

Well now you can add that to the list.

And possibly reread Galatians 3

I am saying reread because I am assuming you have read all of the New Testament
And I am saying possibly because I am assuming you must have overlooked reference of The Seed

On what do you base that claim? Just googling it gives me the impression that naming the underlying theological principle in that way is something only fundamentalist Evangelicals are likely to do, which is hardly most Christians.

Doesn't refute your claim that
Anyone involved in Christian debate has heard of The Seed

Believer and unbeliever alike
That has been proven false.

Not me. I'm an ex-Catholic, and I've been involved in online anti-creation debates since the mid 2000s.

Never heard that term in the context of Christianity.
"The Seed" thing is an example of forcing Jesus into old testament scripture. The context of "his seed and her seed" in Genesis is in relation to Eves sin and the long enmity between the Adamites and the Nodites. It has nothing to do with Mary and her baby Jesus.

You've had plenty of Christians put their hands up to this.

Perhaps in your circle, but for the rest of Christianity it would be true. A quick google search will provide the evidence.

Why should I?
God has already provided the claim

No, you have been told that God has provided the claim, and no one has provided a single shred of evidence. Anyone can provide a claim of whatever they want.

Actually you should prove it not to be.

Someone doesn't understand the burden of proof. If you make the claim, you must support the claim. Don't try to get others to do your homework for you.
