Technically it only took 6-days. God used the seventh day to inflate his hours so he would get paid more.

I once read an essay that attempted to use the theory of Relativity to explain the discrepancies between the Biblical Genesis and the Big Bang timeframes by saying that it would appear as 6/7 days to God whereas it would be billions of years from our perspective.


Then in a SENSE, perhaps, evolution could fit in with Christianity, if only not for Adam and Eve?

So, who here believes in these different ideas:

Creationism
The Big Bang Theory/Evolution
The Big Bang Theory/Intelligent Design
The Big Bang Theory/Intelligent Design/Evolution
Something other than Creationism and the Big Bang Theory

I think I may believe in the fourth one, however I may yet be considering that the Big Bang theory is not probable. What say you? And why?


Creationism and the Big Bang was used to create the universe, In the bible it said God created the universe, but it didn't say what way, so it could have been a big bang.


There's an extensive 7-day deal there. I don't believe in the 7-day deal.


It doesn't say how long there was between the universe being created and the actual creation of life on earth. If you read Genesis 1 then it mentions He seperates the water from the land. It doesn't mention He made it then. So that can explain how rocks are billions of years old. And then God can create all life like we see it within that 7 days. Just because some species are similar it doesn't mean God can't have made them that way.

If someone finds a pair of male and female Homo Sapiens skeletons that are the proper age, call them Adam and Eve if they want.
