The Gap Thing

Well, Craig, I gandered but I'm not impressed. 'Creationism' is a BUSINESS - just look around that very website and see all the things for sale. The facts remain:

1. Both Genesis 1 and Genesis 2:4ff are adaptations (polite word for plagiarisms) of pagan myths, from different sources, using different words for God, completely incompatible in the order and manner of creation. The original source material can still be obtained in any good library or bookstore, including the Epic of Gilgamesh, the clearly fictional flood story from which the Biblical flood story was borrowed.

2. The account in Genesis 1 is, in spite of all that, amazingly accurate (compared with scientific evidence) if the 'days' are taken as billions of years.

3. God reveals Himself through His laws of nature and science. I see God's glory more clearly in one page of a science book than in all of the 'creationist' publications and products combined. Most of the latter are, let's face it, pretty silly.

4. Thank God for freedom of religion! So much of the world doesn't have it. If you want to spend your money on nonsense, go for it!
