Do men have one less rib than women?

 

No, man doesn't have a rib less than woman 😄. This is one of the dangers of taking the Bible hyper literally going beyond what it actually intended to teach. I have found this idea mentioned even in a book called "Pralaya chaadai hunechha" which shows a clear ignorance of Biblical theological understanding. Meanwhile, I used to hear this kind of idea since my childhood. 

Some Christian scholars suggest the property of rib regeneration and genetic evidence that has no effect from any alternation of such body parts that are to be seen in offspring from a scientific point of view. This could be a possibility but the main idea with the rib is equality of Adam and Eve, their inter-dependency and relationship and values. that's all 😄. To add more fun, Christians use the word rib when they reach age of marriage 😃 just to hint that they are in need of equal half 😁. 

We must be very careful while taking things from the Bible and understand in our own way! Otherwise, we could step down on snake or Cobra's head thinking satan is there to attack us! 😁
