Science does not study myths it ignores them and let academic historians sort them out as belong to ancient cultures without science.
YEs, but it considers the ancient myths as myths without science.
Double double sarcasm?!?!!?
Why would an all powerful Omnipotent, All compassionate do something like that to his most noble Creation?
The Biblical God sure did intervene in the Garden of Eden. The Biblical god claims to be responsible and cause the many millennia of human suffering as retribution against all humanity, because two innocent shmucks that sinned.
Meh, no need to apologise. I was a bit taken aback by a couple of earlier posts (not yours) and yours was kinda the straw that broke the camel's back for me, so sorry if I jumped you.
And welcome to RF.
As for your comment about the universe, I agree. That was kinda the point I was trying to make to the original (theist) poster. He said
But whether we believe in God and Heaven doesn't impact on whether they exist (or at least, very few would think it does). So I don't understand the rationale here. Belief in God and Heaven should indicate that one thinks they exist...not that one thinks they are beneficial. Pascal's Wager didn't even go that far.
I mean, I get that people can act religiously because they think it is 'better' even without a strong belief in God, or similar. But this was stranger than that, to me.

How is your attempting to handcuff anthropologists and historians any different from how you seek to handcuff mathematicians by telling us that we don’t understand the alleged “purpose” of mathematics.
You are trying to impose your religion on science and mathematics, just like you seek to impose your religion on other cultures different from your own.
Anthropologists and historians don’t talk the way you do.
That’s cultural.
It is not an attempted hand off .It is a fact of how science works. You are the on trying some vague hand off concerning mythology.
Mythology, including the evolved Biblical mythology, is indeed one of the many mythologies in the universal nature of ancient cultures without science, and NOT any sort of factual history. The study of ancient mythology in all cultures is studied by historians and applied sciences such as cultural anthropology, The mythology of ancient cultures is not true history as documented by matter of fact history of humanity. The Pentateuch ws compiled after 600 BCE and includes evolved ancient mythology form various sources. The Creation mythology and mythical accounts such as Noah's flood do not represent true history.
The Pentateuch itself is not considered an accurate account of history, Yes some persons and events have been determined as historical, but for the most part the Pentateuch is not considered actual history, but a collection of historical narratives from different sources.
Science, and the applied sciences, such as anthropology study and research the mythology of ancient cultures based on the facts that they do not represent true history. but indeed myths.
Not alleged as all. I have documented the nature and purpose of mathematics in previous references.

Because you wouldn’t know what suffering is unless you felt it.

Nothing is absolute in this world.
Then by definition he's not all knowing. Which is fine, but impacts on how the problem of evil/suffering relates.

Insufficient answer based on the overwhelming suffering death for thousands of years that condemned humanity for the unfortunate sin of two fallible humans.

You only know what pain is once you have felt it.
