[Oe List ...] Further to liberals and Biblical literalism

The conservative argument is that the literal 'fall' is a prerequisite to
Paul's analogy of the 'New Adam' role of the Christ in his cosmology.

NPR just had an announcement about a coming program. It said we will look at
whether Adam and Eve were real persons. This is ultimately about whether the
fundamental ideas of Christianity are true are not.

Is the real personhood of Adam and Eve one of Christianity's fundamental
ideas? (Well perhaps one of its conservative or liberal fundamental-IST
ideas.)
