The 6 days creation in Quran, must it be literal?
|
Well, if Imam Khomeini says it is not literal, then obviously it is not because Imam Khomeini is a motherfucking gangster.
He who loves God cannot endeavour that God should love him in return - Baruch Spinoza
The 6 days of creation were literal and the devil stole it from the Old Testament to put it in the Koran.
Of course the days were literal, He could have done it in a blink but chose to do days as a fore-shadow of what is to come.

I see the light, I see the light, I see the light.
-click click click- (you're welcome joe) So, safe to say that you think that some of the narratives in the quran are metaphor, right? Perhaps "Allah" is -also- metaphor? What does the Imam have to say on that one?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything? ![[Image: LB_Header_Idea_A.jpg]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i280.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fkk172%2FBlaziken_rjcf%2FLB_Header_Idea_A.jpg)  (April 16, 2015 at 5:06 pm)MysticKnight Wrote:(April 16, 2015 at 4:04 pm)Surgenator Wrote: So god, the most intelligent being possible, thought it was a good idea to use the word 'day' instead of 'step'?

I don't see any "clear" reason why it is a metaphor. The Khomeini's interpretation is just that, an interpretation. Why is his interpretation more reasonable than the literal interpretation?

One above all-
The days of creation foreshadow- A "Rest" day at the end of a week of work. A "Rest" millennium (dead ahead) after 6 millennium of labor. That Christ (the Light of the world) would come at Millennium 4 (being patterned from the Light being created on day 4.) The culmination of Man's achievement during Millennium 6 (being patterned by Man's creation on day 6). Oh, I forgot, the dividing of the waters from the earth on Genesis day 2 foreshadows the Flood in the second thousandth period.
LOL, Milleniums and "thousandth periods". You're a riot man. Isn't numerology some kind of no-no for yall?
