Apples do not appear in the bible. The notion that the 'Forbidden fruit' was an apple is just what was passed on based on what artists drew at that time. As nobody knows what the Forbidden Fruit looks like, they figured "Heck, apple works".

This is highly debatable because there's so many new versions of the bible. It can depend on the that a lot. They will take the KJV and make it more "modern", thus the apple appears in "the bible", as well as.....dinosaurs.

I highly doubt anyone who has read the Bible would argue that 'the apple' or maybe that just one specific magical apple tree in Eden was the Forbidden Fruit tree.

Any modernization that attempts to 'dumb down' the plot of the New Testament by throwing these things in are just plain...wrong. It panders to wrong concepts such as Young Earth theories and that the majority of dinosaurs co-existed with modern humans at some after the whole Noah's Ark thing.

WTF?

The correct way to eat a banana is to genitally pull back the skin, then using your lips and tongue firmly grip the exposed tip. Using your neck muscles thrust your head forward while holding the base of the banana for leverage, exposing the rest of the creamy flesh. With no teeth (bananas hate that) open your throat and allow the fruit to slide down in one motion. If hunger persists, repeat.

Banana root tastes like a cross between potatoes and peanuts, the fruit tastes entirely different from that, the leaves different from that (they're not eaten, per se, but make nifty packages for steaming food) and the flower different, too. Such a bizarre plant.

Everyone already knows this and it's not even relevant to the point that we being discussed.

The question being discussed was about the position of the genus Musa within the wider context of plant evolution. Bananas and plantains, as you note, are basically the same thing and from an evolutionary standpoint those categories are non-existent. They are not botanically relevant groupings. So, the issue was not anything to do with the relationship between bananas and plantains or the methods of banana cultivation. The issue was the relationship between Musa and other plants.

As it happens, they are monocot angiosperms of the order Zingiberales which also includes ginger, turmeric and cardamom. That's kinda cool.

>repeating already well-known facts within a work of fiction renders the work non-fiction

The shape of the earth was already known in biblical times. Ancient astronomers determined the earth's round shape by observing its shadow during lunar eclipses. As its shadow moved across the moon, it was obviously circular in shape. The horizons, also, were observed to curve as early as 2550 BCE, more than a thousand years before Moses. The Egyptians knew of the earth's spherical size and shape back then. The Greek philosophers Pythagoras and Euclid each touted the spherical theory on the basis of observations shape of the sun and moon, the horizon, and why certain aspects of the moon were visible at certain times of year (implying a rotating ball/sphere). If this information was known by educated Greeks and Egyptians during biblical times, its use in the Bible is nothing special.

It's like people praising Rowling for mentioning that there's a huge explosion sound whenever anyone teleports in the Harry Potter books. Whoopdie-doo. We already know displacing 54kg of matter, like air being displaced by the sudden appearance of a human being in that space, in an instant will cause a loud noise. That's the sound heard when someone cracks a whip, but on a much, much smaller scale.

According to the sources on Wikipedia, there's some debate both for and against that particular argument. But to be perfectly honest, it doesn't really matter. I could go on about about what the story is trying to go on about but I doubt there's any interest in it as it's just my personal take on it.
