Genesis

What I do not understand is why this piece of writing which is so famous is written in no higher style than what a second grader could do. All of the sentences start the same and end with the phrase, “and it was good.” On one hand, it makes it a lot easier to understand clearly what happened on each day, but it also confuses me. I haven’t read much of the bible, but I feel like most of it is written in such an elevated style that I would need someone to explain to me what it says. Simply, I feel like the diction and grammar was that of a seven year old.
In addition, I do not like how man is considered superior. The passage states that God creates man in his own image, and he does so before he creates anything else. The quote, “She shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of man,” angers me. It is saying that the woman was created merely to keep the man company and reproduce. By saying that “she was taken out of man,” it implies that the woman is lower, not equal.
Preposterous is the word that comes to mind when I think of a judge using this piece in court. First of all, it is about a religion, which means that it is mostly ideas. I am not saying that those ideas are not true, but since I for one am not a Christian, these ideas sound ridiculous to me. No one has proved that God created everything around us, and since science has come into play, it is getting very unlikely.
