Neither am I, and I'd argue neither are a lot of Christians. Again, though, I realize attempting to convince you otherwise is fruitless.
Sailhamer argues that the Genesis narrative was intended by its author to be taken historically. Of course, whether or not we take it historically is another matter, and for many Christians that starts with their acceptance of Christ. As a specialist in the Old Testament, though, Sailhamer doesn't have a lot to say on the effects of the Atonement.
