So why would we want to imagine that it would mean anything else when the Bible is pretty clear. How could a "literal day" possibly exist before God created the Sun on the 4th "day"??? He created light on the first day. Well, consistent with that, records seem to indicate there was a big flash of it at one point. And if that was Him, then He is also responsible for all the stars and planets which subsequently coalesced. At which point there began an enormous and complex organic chemistry project which, given the amount of time He's allowed it to work, has now provided almost an infinite variety of results, including the inhabiting of at least (and perhaps only) one of the planets with intelligent life. There are of course a variety of simplified, abridged, and age (or epoch) appropriate versions of this history, the actual scale of which is only slowing revealing itself to us. So it's apparent that if a creator created all of what is, then He is responsible for a far more intelligent design than the history books give Him the credit for; far too intelligent perhaps for us to comprehend. Or maybe He is the simple minded guy with anger management issues they wrote about hundreds of years prior to sanitation. I don't claim to know. ac6xg Sure, why not? Works for me. |
