they exclude all the entered evidence, and just redefine god.

They don't totally exclude all new evidence,
they mount a huge wall of denial long enough to reinterpret the texts

Genesis I and II are in the stage of finally being 'spiritually' redefined.
As if Genesis hadn't been used literally for centuries.

It's worse in Islam: God creates man in 6 different ways (from blood, mud, ashes,..)

But I'm sure it will become an illustration of the infinite care god put into creation
(It couldn't be that muhamad was making things up as he went)
