Very biblical. Why? It's archaeocryptography. From Wikipedia:
Archaeocryptography is not a recognized branch of archeology or of any other academic discipline. It is an example of pseudoscience or pseudoarchaeology that employs contrived calculations involving many free parameters to achieve an impressive-looking result.
You seem to be engrossed by these type of situations.
It's all his mind can handle. It's clear he can't handle reality.

Nonetheless, the ancients were very well advanced in spite of you saying they were a bunch of goat herders.
What makes you think that Genesis is as accurate as to what actually occurred? We're you there? It's just a story Eusebius.
The Genesis creation myth shares traits with many of the other creation myths, usually this involves some sort of divine power fashioning humans and animals out of some natural substance. In the Mayan myth for example, humans were first fashioned from mud, but the mud crumbled, so god tried wood but these humans were destroyed by rain. Finally he found success by making man from maize.
In Norse Mythology a giant was formed from the ice, and from the sweat from his armpits formed two more people.
Lots of the creation myths involve the earth being formed out of some kind of chaos, ocean or void.
The Genesis creation myth is just one of many similar myths. Almost every civilisation throughout history has had its own creation myth.
It is accurate because Jesus, Who never lied, believed the accuracy of it as did Paul and other writers.
I was not there but Jesus was there and He was the One Who did the creating by God's power.
Your examples of other creation stories proves my point that they don't even come close to the actual account in the Bible.

Umm.... we've been over this one before. Jesus was born approximately 6 AD (some say 4 BC) while by your own assertions, God created Adam and Eve around 4000 BC. He wasn't at the creation - he didn't exist then.

Not really. Jesus only used them as the example of a God-ordained marriage.
He did this to make a point with his audience.
Paul also was making a different point.
As Christians we are not required to believe in the Adam and Eve story
exclusively as it is told in Genesis as the only truth.

Jesus existed long before He was born the Son of Man.
All creation came out of God and through Christ. Jesus said "before Abraham was, I am." He never lied.

No, actually Jesus and the other writers of the bible took the historic creation account as truthful and accurate. And Adam is in Christ's lineage as are his offspring. You don't put make believe people in your genealogy. Well, maybe you do but He didn't.
