JD: So, lets get this straight:
A deity created a male proto-human out of clay. Then it took a male to female genetic clone of it so the two could breed. Thus whole human race was born.
As creation myths go I've always found that one to be one of the silliest. Oddly though, this creation myth suggests that the human body is malleable and that gender is not static and is in fact fluid.
Curiously though there's the second creation myth that says god made humanity in its image; male and female. Which suggests that the god of the bible is both genders thus making it intersex and/ or transgender. Both myths support the reality that 1 in every 1200-2000 are born intersex.
Gender and gender orientation was never set in stone.

Martin: What a load of twaddle. Where does the Bible speak of a genetic clone? it says that God made Adam out of the dust and Eve out of adam's rib. No requirement for a clone, the God who made a man out of dust can equally make a woman from a rib. Nor is there any suggestion that gender can be fluid.
There is no 'second creation myth', not that there is a myth. but of course God made Man in His image and God is a spirit. Thus the image of God has nothing to do with sex. If you bothered to do your research you'd have known that.
