The Bible isn't a science textbook. Noah's flood describes windows of a sky dome opening and closing to release and restrain water.

This is so true. And it's honestly a shame that... I'm a Christian evangelical, but also a scientist, and it's very clear that, in the scientific side of things, it's clear cut and clean. And I think that it could be clean on the faith or religious side of things too, but the scientific method...

The irony here is that people win the lottery every year. Despite it being extraordinarily improbable.

Carl Sagan does a good job explaining this with reference to heike crabs:

I'm a geologist. I hear these kinds of concerns somewhat often. And for many years, I had spent time talking about Earth sciences with the church. Trying to navigate the subject. But, in more recent years, I've preferred a different approach. The Bible will always take precedence over what...

I'm the Bible, temples are inaugurated in 7 days. And in the Bible, Genesis is about God's temple. That's why God rests on the 7th day. Because he's resting on His throne. This is what the Lord says: “Heaven is My throne and the earth is the footstool for My feet. Where then is a house [temple]...

I'd recommend beginning here:

I think you missed the point that it doesn't make any sense to use a pre-scientific context to develop your understanding of 21st century science.

Read the Bible, like a child. Ok. The One who builds His upper chambers in the heavens And has founded His vaulted dome over the earth, He who calls for the waters of the sea And pours them out on the face of the earth, The Lord is His name. Amos‬ ‭9:6‬ ‭NASB and they saw the God of Israel...

Ok. Well, good luck with that. We've talked for like 40 pages now and just as from page 1, I'd say that your ideas don't make any sense. The Bible doesn't speak to concepts of science. It describes an ancient near east cosmology. It's pre scientific. And the theory of evolution doesn't speak...

Nope, check the Bible. ‭Genesis 1:1-3 NRSVUE‬ [1] When God began to create the heavens and the earth, [2] the earth was complete chaos, and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters. [3] Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was...

Have you heard of Dr. John Waltons 7-day temple inauguration view? https://www.youtube.com/live/9KXhEpQWyx0?feature=shared That Genesis is about a temple inauguration and that temples are inaugurated in 7-days in the Bible? ‭Isaiah 66:1-2 NIV‬ [1] This is what the Lord says: “Heaven is my...

The earth is present in verse 1 before God began creating. ‭Genesis 1:1-3 NRSVUE‬ [1] When God began to create the heavens and the earth, [2] the earth was complete chaos, and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters. [3] Then God said, “Let...

No. It's dozens of books by dozens of authors. The holy Spirit guides these authors, but their writings are indeed written through their own ancient near east lense.

Genesis is written through a context describing ancient near east cosmology. It isn't downstream of scientists, it's just in its own historical context.

Your response just seems dishonest. You didn't even think of the possibility to be both animal and more than animal? Genesis describes ancient near east cosmology. It's not science.

Didn't say I wasn't more. But, evolution doesn't have anything to do with the supernatural. It's a theory involving the natural world.

I'm comfortable with being a warm blooded vertebrate. Evolution doesn't pertain to the spiritual realm so I don't see it being of value trying to discuss the evolution of spirits or anything like that.
