Not Exactly like the Bible"
If God had created Eve first, what might have transpired:
After three weeks in the garden, G~d came to visit Eve.
"How are things, Eve?", He asked.
"It is all so beautiful, G~d," she replied, "The sunrises
and sunsets are breathtaking, the smells, the sights,
everything is wonderful. But I just have this one problem.
It's these breasts you've given me. The middle one
pushes the other two out, and I am constantly knocking
them with my arms, catching them on branches, snagging
them on bushes, they're a real pain."
"That's a fair point," replied G~d, "but it was my first shot
at this, you know. I gave the animals what, six? So I just
figured you'd need half, but I see that you are tight. I'll fix
that up right away!" and G~d reaches down and removes
the middle breast, tossing it into the bushes.
Three weeks passed, and G~d again visited Eve in the
garden. "Well, Eve, how's my favorite creation?" He asked.
"Just fantastic," she replied, "but for one small oversight
on your part. You see, all the animals are paired off. The
ewe has her ram, the cow has her bull, all the animals have
a mate, except me. I feel so alone."
G~d thought for a moment. "You know, Eve, you're right.
How could I have overlooked this! You do need a mate
and I will immediately create Man from a part of you!
Now, let's see, where did I leave that useless boob?"
