Howard, I don't expect anyone to feel guilty about my being offended. I'm trying to convince people to be as offended as I am, by explaining why I'm offended. I'm not having much success.

To those who cite Saint Luke et al.; Genesis is not a biology text, and the gospels are not history texts. The gospels are the beginning, not the end, of any inquiry into the life and death of Jesus. But perhaps this is a matter best taken up somewhere other than a music discussion forum.
