What inspires readers in one era ,fails to do so in another.
In one age, scriptures condemn the eating of Shrimp as an abomination. In another time , children were to be executed for disobeying parents. and so on.

Creation story was written in the only way it could've been written at the time it was written, and in a way that the reader could understand.

Yes, Jesus has more credibility than Darwin, but Darwin never had to deal with the Jews.

Scriptures are trustworthy for the spiritual truths they impart to the reader ;and not for a biology lesson.
Hello C,

Do you believe that God could have created all living things the way it is recorded in Genesis? Do you think He has the power to do that? If He could why wouldn't He? You said,"Creation story was written in the only way it could've been written at the time it was written, and in a way that the reader could understand." Well how would it be written today? How many people actually understand what's involved with evolution, DNA, genetics and all the processes that must randomly but precisely occur for life, especially human life to come about? The proponents of evolution are like the gnostics of New Testament times, "believe what we say for we have secret knowledge and we scoff at those who believe what's in that outdated bible". People will always believe those who they deem have more knowledge, such as scientists, professors and teachers and that is why the nonsense of evolution has become so popular. The theory of evolution is one of the best tools the devil has in his ****nal, which is really interesting because it takes way more faith to believe what the theory of evolution says than to believe what the bible says an all powerful God has done. Evolution is just one more attempt to chip away at the credibility of the Bible and the power and trustworthiness of God. Those who believe in evolution are deceived and as such laugh at the truth and those who believe it.
