Why try to confuse Conor right off the bat Lance?
Genesis is not a "science book" per se.
Although the writer of Genesis is also the God who
created all that is called "science"
Are you asking Conor to interpret Genesis in the light
of Astronomy and Physics?
Just this morning I read this interaction between DaveH
and KevinD (I think) ...
KD: That is explained by the fire and brimstone imagery that is
in reality endless torment.
a fire which cannot be consumed, even an unquenchable fire DAVEH: More imagery that is physically an impossibility. Fire can be extinguished, whereas mental torment can go on forever.
So tell me - What is a physical impossibility for God?
The same God who delivered what he had
promised to Abraham and
Sarah when they were 90 and 100yrs old respectively. A God who was
able to roll back the Red Sea until his people crossed and afterward kept
them in the desert for 40yrs
feeding them with manna from heaven and
keeping their clothes from wearing out and their feet from
swelling. The same God who stopped the sun for 24
hours and caused an axe head to float on water
The God who energized His
prophet causing him to run for 25 miles in front of Jezebels' chariot and
had the ravens feed him
while he rested and regrouped in a cave.
Tell me - what would be too difficult for a
God like this and how can the feeble efforts of man
explain
Him?
