Hi Tyler. Yes I do believe that people raised as Christian tend to have better moral to a extent. Thank God for Preachers Daughters.:bigjoint:

Lol, yes, the daughters. That may be your belief from your experience, but objective data and current studies show otherwise...

Why use an already existing term to describe something completely different? A day for anyone on earth, is 24 hours.


You mean that it's not a 'day'. Again, a day is 24h, unless you're on another planet.

Like in Peter: "But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness." <That is in the new testament concerning "the return", so it might not mean that 1 day = 1,000 years in genesis. I'm just pointing out that a day probably doesn't = 24 hours in genesis.

So in genesis 1 it says God created "man"... Both male and female. Then in genesis 2 it says God completed his work by the seventh day, and blesses the day and rests for the day. After this it says, "These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the 'Lord God' made the earth and the heavens"..

Or, it's written by a man (who's incredibly primitive no less) and they have no idea about the sun, and it's cycles, what a 'day' actually is or anything about our solar system.



If you can't actually trust what something says, and all you can really do is glance meaning from it, why call it the word of god?



That is the accepted definition of day.



How do you know it's more? It's certainly not written in the texts....[/QUOTE]

I'm not calling it the word of god or anything like that, and I agree with modern science as to the age of Earth. But, I stand by everything that I said in my post... If you read it all in a literal way, then that's your problem.
