Creation Ethics

[StopPolloition]

It appears you're interested in the presentation of your ideas to guide rather than any feelings. Further, if you were that well versed in Gap theory, you'd know that the gap is inserted between vs. 1 and 2, not days 1 and 2. Day 2 isn't called good because it's the day God separates Heaven from Earth in anticipation of the sin of man.

Additionally, at the end of day 6, God calls EVERYTHING good. This is ontologically impossible if there was a devastated earth to repair. The Gap theory directly contradicts Exodus 20.11 where scripture declares God made heaven and earth in six days.

Further, all of the six days were bookended with "the evening and the morning- definitive examples of 24 hour periods and not indeterminate epochs. The Gap theory is simply trying to force the square peg of secular theory into the round hole of creation doctrine.

We have no problem asserting that Adam and Eve were created as adults but many seem to lose that footing when faced with postulating that light could have been created already en route from distant stars, that geological formations could have been created having already possessed the characteristics eons old.

The Bible is clear in Ezekiel that Lucifer was perfect in Eden; too, Eve doesnt register any surprise upon encountering him- she was familiar with him, making his temptation all the more insidious. Aside from an obscure passage in Isaiah about the Devil making the world a wilderness (no wonder, his was the introduction of sin into it) there isnt a SINGLE scripture from which anyone can cull a straight faced support for Gap theory.

It's heinous to suppose that God, powerful enough to create all things, would need the crutch provided by billions and billions of years in which to do it.

Right now, sciencists are looking at naming a final dimension not only that but also this single dimension rules and governs the universe. This not only would give objects like the earth a reason for existing but also give them meaning toward their existence. Yes, I believe there is a God, a personality(Not techincally a person as in the physical sense), a thing or more pointedly the law, the final dimension.

Firstly I would like to say this: "You are only doing the same exact thing, he(or she) has done, do not be so quick to blame"

I have watched this arguemnet develop quite a bit. And to be totally and brutally honest neither of you have presented solid evidence for either of your beliefs. But, instead have presented what you believe in, as guides to others as how they should believe. Truth, is one not a guide but a fact. and also neither is it questionable. There is only a certain point that we can see truth, then it all fades away.

At this point no matter your belief, it is a guide of you as it is neither set in stone or is it in writing. As such can either of you be criticizing the other? look at the languages of the world for a minute and you will under stand what I am saying. I can say "I love you" in english and it means nothing to the person who speaks chinese, just as vice versa.

There is only one thing that did not change, the meaning of the symbols. Yes, I know it is human nature to prove another wrong but trust me... This is a meaningless debate, over what we really do not know anything about let alone was there to see it.
