Is Humans Riding Dinosaurs the Real Purpose of Genesis 1? - The UnFragmented Bible, Edition 2

The plain text of Genesis 1:1-2 show that the early chapters of Genesis aren't meant by the authors (or God) to be read as video camera footage, or what Answers in Genesis defines as "real history." This approach isn't supported by the text and rather than accept the Bible on its terms, forces unbiblical human terms onto it, forcing it to answer questions it was never intended to answer. This has caused us to miss the biblical meaning and purpose of the creation account, but even more concerning, they've been added onto the gospel of Jesus. This has caused many to throw out their faith altogether when they learn scientific and archeological facts later in life that contradict what they were raised in as the inerrant Word of God.  The choice doesn't have to be doubling down on extrabiblical concepts like humans riding dinosaurs and belief in fire-breathing dragons in order to keep the Bible "real history" or throwing the whole Bible (and faith) out as nonsense.    The UnFragmented Bible is a video podcast.
