Christ Genealogy Debunks Christiany

As I've noted elsewhere in some other discussions about Christianity, Jesus's family tree has a time span of 77 generations listed between his generation and Adam whom the Bible claims was the "first man". Reference: (Matthew 1:1-16 & Luke 3:23-38)

However, the Australian aborigines have evidently been in Australia for over a thousand consecutive generations. Reference: Aboriginal Australians - Wikipedia

There have been hundreds of generations of Native Americans between the time their common ancestry migrated from Asia until the time of Christ.

The Bible falsely claims there were only 77 generations between Christ and the first man; when people have indeed actually existed for thousands of generations, which proves the Bible and Christianity as being false. Right?

More than that, the Messiah has to be patrilineally descended from David. Supposedly Jesus had no father.

Cue "they lived longer back then so generations took more time." All those bible characters living for hundreds of years, why, they must not have been having babies until they were at least a few hundred years old. :rolleyes:

Oh, I'm sure they aged differently. I mean, if the men are living into their 900s on average then 300 must be, like around 30. They lived ten times longer then so they must have aged ten times slower right?

They probably reached adulthood as we do today, like at 21, but stayed young much longer.

Due to their being closer genetically to A&E, they had less imperfections to debilitate their DNA. Now, being genetically so far away from our first parents (c. 240 generations), we have all sorts of afflictions hurting us!

Jesus is the eleventh of the seventh born son from Adam. !0 competes the cycle of Adam, ten plus one begins the new cycle of the Son of man. All the chosen ones who have born the image of the first Adam, will bear the image of the second Adam, Jesus, who we once knew as a man.

Actually they lived shorter lifespans despite how the bible tries to fudge the facts.

But assuming you are correct, would not that same longer lifespan be the same for all peoples of the world, or just those few mentioned in the bible?

Reminds me of Jeanne Calment a french lady who died about 20 years ago, she lived to over 122 years old. She said "i only have one wrinkle and im sitting on it"

I'm surprised people even believe that they lived at these incredible ages. There's absolutely no way that could have ever happened with mammilian species such as us.

It does not disprove mystical Christianity. I think it does call into question certain materialistic forms of Christianity. If people took it to heart then Christianity might shrink down to its mystical following. It would not be nearly as popular I think.

The genealogies in Matthew and Luke aren’t desdigned to be literal. They’re mythic, and they each make a specific point about who they each claim Jesus to be.

Taking things literally is actually rather modern. St Augustine wrote that anyone who believes that God created the world in exactly 144 hours divided into 6 sessions was being "childish"!

If the genealogy of Jesus is so fabricated, then so is the validity of him being the prognosticated Messiah....Right?
