Wow you've given me a lot. But First i need to say i'm not a geocintrist or a flat earth person. I speculate on that theory there. (meaning my posted theory)

No, for three reasons i can tell you that is not true

1) In Genesis, It says "There was day, and there was night the # day"
2) If plants were created "ages" after the sun, they would all die
3) If fish were created before plants, they would have nothing to feed on for "ages"

Since the 7th day followed the 6th we would have days that become years. If we change the days to years or ages then we have to change years to what? What do we do when its called years? What happens if we stay within the construct of this day equals age theory? If each day in the Genesis account represents a thousand or even a million years, then what do we do with the age of Adam. Adam lived 930 years. So if each year has 360 days that would be 360 million years. Multiply that with 930 years and we have Adam older than the earth and even the universe."

So when the same chapter of Genesis describes the sky as a solid dome (raqia) in which God sets the sun, moon and stars, that means the sky is actually a solid dome and there's water above it? I thought you weren't a geocentrist.

I've always wondered if the Book of Jasher should be in the place of Genesis. It would fit in perfectly...

Even if Genesis is correct, all of the events written to that point were written before man. Who says that God had a different perception of a 'day' at that point because man wasn't there to set a 'day'. To God a year can be a millinium and vice versa.

You still have the problem of light, earth and plants existing before the sun, whales existing before land mammals, etc.

The Bible was not written by atheists, Nor are those who believe it. When God said let thier be light, there was light... Prehaps that was the light of His face. Prehaps that was Light from a lightbulb he temperarily placed in the sky.

God is all powerful.

There is no problem with light, either the light is God's spiritual light or (in my opinion the more likely) light still remnent from the Big Bang. Animals exist after the sun and moon are created.

I don't deny that your God is supposedly all-powerful. Is it not also within his power to create a sun that revolves around the earth? Or a flat earth that looks round? The Bible says he did.

Give me a direct verse that says this planet is 6,000 years old...

*slowly walks away... not believing he's actually going to go through this again...*

I may not return, for my own sanity...
