Is that what you're suggesting this godlight is? Essentially a magic lightbulb?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I never knew artical light source was magical. I thought it was more scientific.

Right, so where is the scriptural reference to the magic god light being taken away? Or don't you have it, because this entire thing is something you've made up to cover for a biblical inaccuracy?
Not to mention that everything we know about the universe contradicts the genesis account of creation. I'd just like you to keep in mind that you're still making shit up no matter what you end up providing. We really are just arguing over fantasy here.

I haven't made up anything believe me if I was trying to make up something it would be more far fetched that such a thing as artifical light, I mean who has hear or seen such a thing. Emphasis on the sarcasm.

Artificial (ie manmade) light is scientific; in fact all light produced in nature is scientific. That's not what you're trying to shoehorn into the picture, though, is it? Be honest.

All I am saying is I believe in a God who can create anything, so I think it is possible for him to make artifical light. Or are you trying to tell me lightbulbs are non existant?

Why would we say such a ridiculous thing?
If your god can make anything including artificial light, why would it need to make a Sun to do the job this mysterious artificial godlight was already doing?

You are really misunderstanding the point of contention here. Namely, that you have no biblical basis for what you're asserting, and hence it is just a thing that you're making up to plug a logical gap in the written story.

Maybe to test others, to confuse the skeptics... to be honest it doesn't say in the Bible and it is really hard to understand what others are thinking.

Honestly you are going to have to trust me, I have no prove that I am not making it up, so in other words no matter what I say you will always think I made it up. It is almost like you know me more than I do.

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
