One does not need to reject a God, but one does need to reject parts of the Bible.

Incorrect.

Let me guess, you're another literalist, like RJHinds?

Six days? Really?

Either the Bible is the inerrant Word of God or it’s not. I choose to believe it is.

The theory of evolution is not compatible with the Bible. I believe an “old earth” is.

Do you deny that Genesis is in the Bible? Do you deny the Creation account as recorded in Genesis?

This is why there is Reply & Quote.


Edit: Actually, you're right. I misread which post *you* were replying to. I'm sorry.
Apology accepted. Let’s kiss and make up.

Edit: Figuratively speaking, of course.

What’s wrong about it? It’s as right as right can be.

One has to reject the Christian God (meaning the only true and living God) to believe in evolution so your position is actually wrong

Let's apply some of that famous atheist logic and rationale to the Genesis account.

Could the 6 days be literally 6 24-hour time periods? 6 revolutions of Earth around the Sun?

The clock started on "day" 1.
Our Sun was created on "day" 4.

Ok, since now we know the 6 days couldn't possibly involve the time it takes for the Earth to revolve around the Sun 6 times... clearly the aforementioned "days" involved some other time period and the days in some other realm.

Programmer: "Whew! I stayed up for 6 days straight creating this virtual reality program."
Typical atheist: "Contradiction! In the program, 5.5 trillion days have passed! You fail!"

😞

RHP atheist: "So you claim that we're just made up characters in some stupid program?"

Wow. What you describe is six YEARS. Six days is the time span of six rotations on its axis. Unless of course in your cosmology the Earth doesn’t rotate. Edit: in which case it is the time span of six rotations of the ENTIRE universe around the Earth, excepting those planets that are in retrograde to keep things Biblical and excepting those pesky moons of Jupiter and does your brain hurt yet?

It’s no wonder we have trouble with the subject.

Oh. My bad. Ok I stand corrected. 6 revolutions of Earth, not orbits around the Sun. Either way, the Sun is required for Earth days to occur.

The Sun is not required for a time duration of six rotations of the Earth to elapse.
