I have absolutely NO faith in theologians, other than the fact that they have studied the fairy tales of their particular sect at length.
And there are quite a few such verses in the Bible - praising childlike faith and bashing scholarship. It's pretty easy to understand why they exist. During the time the books were written, very few people were literate. And praising simple acceptance deflects any sort of questioning.
No, I don't accept anything any theologian teaches. I'm just saying that I have heard many "interpretations" of the creation stories in Genesis, and yours was a new one.
