Let The Creatard Shitting of Bricks Begineth

[Jenny A]

V1 - In the beginning…..States the cosmos is created, and that it began (not steady state, nor adhering to hindu doctrine of oscillations. Here the frame of reference (FOR) is from the cosmos.
V2 - FOR shifts to the earth’s water surface. >And the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters < . The Book of Job adds that the earth’s surface was dark because an opaque cloud covering prevented the light from reaching the surface.
V3 - This is where the ‘days’ began with the phrase ‘and God said’. The first phrase. >Let there be light< . The earth’s cloud covering is reduced enough to allow cosmic light sources to penetrate all the way to the earth’s surface.
With each one of the days, God is preparing the earth for mankind’s arrival. After God created man, He ‘rested’ (God’s creation activities have ceased until Day 7 completes). As one can see, some of the reasons God created the universe centers around Man - who has been endowed with both a body and spirit which connotes an eternal purpose.

Really?

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

Genesis 1:1-5

Seems to me that god created heaven and earth but earth was still without form and there was no light. Then god created light, after which he divided light from darkness. Odd that. And what waters was god hovering over? It all flies in the face of what we know about cosmology. So at the end of the first day we have a formless earth and light divided from dark but no source of light and nothing to stop light from illuminating everything. As a statement of what happened it's hopelessly[/quote] confused.

V3 - This is where the ‘days’ began with the phrase ‘and God said’. The first phrase. >Let there be light< . The earth’s cloud covering is reduced enough to allow cosmic light sources to penetrate all the way to the earth’s surface.
With each one of the days, God is preparing the earth for mankind’s arrival. After God created man, He ‘rested’ (God’s creation activities have ceased until Day 7 completes). As one can see, some of the reasons God created the universe centers around Man - who has been endowed with both a body and spirit which connotes an eternal purpose.

But, as I pointed out and you have ignored those days of preparation are wildly out of order no matter how much time is allotted for each day. So why did this divinely inspired book get the order of event ass backwards?

And what about the creation story in Genesis 2 which is in a completely different order?
