Linda Belleville's argument: Genesis 2 speaks of order and source, not authority -- Mike's rebuttal: these aren't mutually exclusive; primogeniture is precisely about order implying authority.

Dr. Linda Belleville argues that Adam being made first (order) and Eve from Adam (source) says nothing about authority or leadership. Mike responds this is a false dichotomy -- primogeniture is based exactly on the idea that order relates to authority. Establishing order and source doesn't answer the question of WHY God chose this order. Belleville's argument observes facts but refuses to interpret them.
