@keakealani.bsky.social Evangelicalism 100% purports it to be that. And insists that you can’t really trust the Bible at all if you don’t see it that way. “If you can’t believe Genesis 1 really means 6 literal 24-hour days, how can you believe what the Gospels say about Jesus?” is a thing I’ve heard more than once.
