Debate: Does God exist?
Side: Theism

What strikes me about the accounts of the writers in the Bible is how cohesive and intelligent they were. They were like prodigies of modern knowledge and education and skills. Look at Creation 1stThe Creation in Genesis. There was not a "24 hour period" until day 4Day 1 God made Heavens and the Earth. The Universe. It was formless void and dark. Made up mostly of water with dark space over the surface of the water.The earth was floating in the Universe not spinning. Floating as any rock in space. And it was a dark planet of water. So on day 1 God made the universe and the world It days the Spirit of God was roaming in the world over the waters. Then God made light separated the world in 1/2 with darkness and light. Light He called good. Named light "day" and dark "night." And that was day 1. There is no time period for day 1 it could have been 1000 years or a 24 hour day as we know it. God is not governed by time. And He didnt create time as we know it till day 4. So on day 1, time didn't exist. Each day says there was morning and evening but time didn't exist so light and dark were divided in 2, but they werent coordinatef by the world spinning, it tumbled as earth stood floating without rotation in space. Day 2 God placed the core and earth in the middle of the world. Separating water from water. Water covered the firmanent.So this gives the idea that the world is round. Because it separated the water in 1/2 around it. Since this move on day 2 didn't create a land mass visible then it separated the water in the middle. Like describing the core and grounds below the water.Authors of genesis seemed to understood the world is round. Because the expanse placed in the middle of the water would disperse water all around it. And also day 2 time still didn't exist. So this could have been our world floating with light and dark tumbling in a manner of something round floating. 3rd day God gathered the water together "and let the land appear. The core with land elevations were exposed and then He let vegetation and growth occur. So some vegetation grew on the dark half, some grew on the light 1/2 of the world or there may have been shifting with light and darkness. Creating both vegetation that needs light and some that grow in darker climates.Or the tumbling was pretty even. God put in motion according to Genesis every seed reseeding producing more of its kind. That was the 3rd day again time as we know it still doesn't exist.4th day God put everything in place for day and night stars, sun, moon. And separated day from night. God placed the Sun Moon stars and appointed the lower light to govern the night and the brighter to govern the day, and made days weeks and years. The world started spinning and orbiting and God created time as we know it. And so time began. 5th day God made the fish and birds of every kind and blessed them. 6th Animals of every kind after their kind. And also man and woman.The days are spelled out with basic foundation as factual documentation, then the story of the days are expanded on and told with greater details. Its interesting the Garden was a designated area, God made man then went and planted the garden, and then the Lord put man into it. But man was made from the ground dust outside the garden.And God brought forth animals then made eve from out of man's side.
