Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm sorry yo...C,<br /><br />Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm sorry you weren't persuaded by, though. You said God could have meant it symbolically. Why do you say that? There's nothing about the language of the text that suggests the creation is figurative or symbolic. I suggest you say that because you trust the opinions of scientists over the clear words of the Bible. If the Bible says six days but scientists say billions of years, I trust the Bible.<br /><br />Your point about the length of light/dark is interesting but fails on one point: a “day” is measured by one rotation of the earth on its axis. The length of light/dark may vary depending on where one stands on the earth but the length of the day is the same everywhere.<br /><br />Thanks again for visiting and for your comments. I hope you visit again.<br /><br />God bless!!<br /><br />RKBentleyRKBentleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00566375018731000081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030110973061875792.post-46774705405693164812012-08-02T04:24:13.158-04:002012-08-02T04:24:13.158-04:00I love how you caught the lie that parents tell th...I love how you caught the lie that parents tell their children. Not many people discover that, and when I read what you said I was amazed! On another note, I believe it was over six billion years or something, and not six days. My reasons are either 1) God said it symbolically or 2) maybe so far back in the Earth history day and night did not indicate 12 hours each? did the Earth rotate at the same speed and the same distance from the Sun? What if he created all this at the north pole, for example, where one could term 6 sunless months as one night? Of course He does not lie, but some things He says are enigmatic to the modern man!Crystal Pintohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992852313370475422noreply@blogger.com
