Quote: Methos said: Did you read the entire post, or did you stop after that one point? If you had continued reading, you'd see that I address this point.
Just in case, let's see what I can clear up here.
I read the entire post, but I can't tell what you're going on about if not trying to assert that God modified earth rather than created it.
Quote: Methos said: Is it?
After all, the first line says the heavens and earth were created, then it gets into details about the seven days of creation. But nowhere in the seven days does it show that the world and heavens and earth were formed from out of nowhere. With the second and third days, when the sky and dry land is formed, the way it's worded suggests that something already existed and God was rearranging what he already created rather than creating from scratch for these two days of creation.
You're all over the place here. First you conceed that the Bible says God created the world and then one sentence later you're trying to imply exactly the opposite by invoking, "something didn't come from nothing".
Using what the Bible doesn't say to try and make your case just isn't doesn't work.
Quote: Again, in the case of dry land - no something from nothing. It's rearranging what already exists. Dry land already existed - it just was inaccessible because it was covered up by water. So it may have been created before the seven days.
Allow me to break this down: The waters were/are on earth. God created earth. Thus the waters were there when he created them and the land below.

I've offered you ample evidence in many a difference form. You've simply chosen to ignore whatever I say, then insult me because your sore regarding the fact that I was able to point out your idiocy.
