We should probably leave most of this until my next post when I will focus on this issue. However your analogies do not fit.

When a human takes clay and forms a pot, they can certain squish the pot together and instead of one large pot they can make two smaller ones. But this is not the way God did it.

A human can take some clay and make a pot and then choose to remove part of the inner lining of the pot and close up the hole. Then a human can take the part that they took out of pot one and add more clay to that piece and make a new pot.

However there are problems with this analogy. When a person removes part from the first pot, it doesn’t make the pot something that it wasn’t already in the beginning. It is still that same pot with a missing piece.

Adam was created male because God only created male and female. God did not “reform” Adam as male.

I will try to get the next post done soon so that we can carry on our discussion there, okay?
