Have you ever thought that God(the Creator, the All) was not even included in the story in Genesis? Maybe there were some beings who created us to work called "God" by early man. Maybe there were other beings who showed us the truth(serpent).

It's an interesting thought, but if you accept this is true, you introduce more problems than you solve. It's intellectually unsatisfying. You have pushed to origins of life back a step, and (granting that your ARE now accepting the bible as the truth) you open the door for thousands of additional contradictions through the rest of the text. You may be interested to research panspermia, as it entertains ideas such as this.

More likely the ancient people who recorded Genesis adapted it from stories believed by their Assyrian and Babylonian captors. One myth begets another, etc.

Maybe... but there was only one who was prophecied to live, heal, teach, die and save our souls. Not only did he do that, but he rose from his tomb! That's as good a definition of deity as I need. He taught the scriptures as truth, conquered Satan and will return to crush his unclean head forever. +5

Here's what I've been thinking lately - I noticed that the galaxies in space look a lot like atoms under the microscope. What if everything we see is really nothing more than atoms and molecules of a being that is big, it would be incomprehensible to us. We are mere specks in the microscope of such a being.
