Hi Folks..
Ingledsva;
The first story tells us Adam-Human is in the image of Elohiym -male AND female = hermaphrodite, androgynous
Yes it does say Adam was fashioned in that "image" - but your most base mistake here is to assume that "elohim" means hermaphrodite, for simply, it does not and never did - not even close..Elohim - is a PLURAL noun - like for instance - mankind - Englishmen - it denotes a SPECIES and a RACE of Beings..Elohim are a SPECIES and a RACE OF "gods"...NOT one god - MANY gods ...
Like if I say here - Iam Pete and I am a Human Being - that is exaclty the same as this "god" saying "Iam Yahweh and Iam Elohim" - and it is also the exact same context when a lesser Angel likewise declares "Iam Gabriel from the Elohim" for example - the word is a NOUN for a SPECIES of CREATURE..An ACTUAL race of beings - like calling someone an Englishman - or an American or whatever - understand - PLURAL NOUN - because we ARE dealing with MANY GODS and their leader we call Yahweh !!
Trace it all way back to the start Folks - Elohim ARE the same group as described much earlier by the Sumerians - only they call them Anunaki..The Elohim of the Jewish heritage ARE the much earlier Anunaki of Sumer.....MANY MANY "gods" - an entirely seperate SPECIES of intelligent HUMANOID CREATURES that once lived among us DIRECTLY and ruled and governed here for millenia.....
(yes Folks they ARE creatures - exactly the same as You and I - these Elohim are NOT the source of Creation itself - NOT gods - Adam is fashioned by GENETIC manipulation as we would now term it)
Story two says a HALF - not a rib - is taken from this being, - so we have separated male and female for procreation. Look at it in the Hebrew.
I DO always go as direct to source as possible - and again you are plainly wrong - no mention of a "half" anywhere in ANY translation I can find...

וַיַּפֵּל יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים תַּרְדֵּמָה עַל-הָאָדָם, וַיִּישָׁן; וַיִּקַּח, אַחַת מִצַּלְעֹתָיו, וַיִּסְגֹּר בָּשָׂר, תַּחְתֶּנָּה. - 21
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the place with flesh instead thereof.
וַיִּבֶן יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים אֶת-הַצֵּלָע אֲשֶׁר-לָקַח מִן-הָאָדָם, לְאִשָּׁה; וַיְבִאֶהָ, אֶל-הָאָדָם.
22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from the man, made He a woman, and brought her unto the man.
Its very very clear - they took a RIB - a specific bone - it even says they took ONE of his ribs, meaning of course whatever it was, Adam had MANY - this simply cannot apply to your statement above,can it..?..No mention of a "half" anywhere - but mentioned two times SPECIFICALLY is the word rib - with context to tell us that whatever body part it actually was, Adam had MANY and they took only ONE - later context agrees still as Adam declares the woman is BONE of my bone flesh of my flesh etc etc..read it properly without the preconceptions...
It doesnt really matter how many times you repeat the same statement - it is still an error - obviously - as their own SANCTIONED VERSION - clearly carries the word RIB and has no mention at all of ANY such two faced hermaphrodite....Seems then you quote OPINION perhaps - but that opinion was NEVER accepted as "official scripture" was it..?..And as that first Jewish official scripture, will then go on to be twisted again into the new "christian scripture" with Genesis, then obviously we here are working from the original Jewish ACCEPTED scripture - hence the bible we have says rib and MEANS rib specifically as that IS what the original Jewish scripture also says...Obvious really..
But as said - hinted at - all this "genesis" - is the JEWISH truth - and its only a retelling of a MUCH MUCH earlier and FAR MORE DETAILED ACCOUNT that is found in the Sumer records...And again, there too - original source - the narrative says clearly created as BOTH male and female - no mention of any two faced hermaphrodites here either - though there is actually THREE attempts made before man is finally finished....For sure - these Elohim in the bible - ARE the same as the Sumerians call Annunaki - no doubt whatsoever - same names same places same narratives - only THOUSANDS of years before any Jewish nation at all...
Elohiim ARE Anunaki and they ARE a race of CREATURES - a SPECIES of flesh and blood living entities exactly like You and I...NOT GODS AT ALL...Not in the true sense at least...NONE of this bible truth - is CHRISTS truth - for He will come among us and explain it all - this whole entire universe is seperated and isolated from another and much greater realm of creation - the ones here we call "gods" are not gods at all - not the SOURCE of creation at all - just using the process and claiming a superiority they have no rights to claim....Only HE knew the truth for He said no mortal nor even gods or Angels HERE had ever encountered that other greater realm at all - only HE came direct from there , the realm of the TRUE Divine and SOURCE of creation itself....
Indeed - before Christ - the world had NO DIVINE TRUTH AT ALL - all we had - was manipulation at the hands of these others who created us directly - lies they told to keep us dominated and subserviant TO them so they could rule over us unchallenged..
