If rabbit fossils, world-wide, were found in a layer below trilobite fossils, then evolution would be falsified.
If Genesis 2 said a Day Six human being existed before Day Five birds (actually, it does), then believers would say one of the following:
1. Genesis 1 is not to be taken literally. It's just a litany used in temple worship.
2. Genesis 2 is a secondary creation that all happened on the sixth day so Adam could name the birds that already existed.
3. Genesis 2 is not intended to present the chronological sequence of events, it's a theological statement.
I've already asked OEC about this:
Saying that Genesis is an allegory is saying that the story is fake, that it is not history.
So my question is:
At which line in the Bible does it switch from fake story to real history.
If it is just Genesis 1 and 2 that is(are) fake story, then does this mean that it switches to real mode at 3:1
Genesis 3:1 KING JAMES VERSION
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
