So if we are to believe the world is only 5,000 and some years old then your GOD is a trickster and liar. Personally my God’s time is his and has no relation to human time.
There was also an indication from one of you that your God is not smart enough to have invented evolution. You might keep an eye out for lightning bolts! In my not so humble opinion the two theories, evolution and creation fit together and support each other rather nicely.
And last, an over inflated ego is, I’m pretty sure, not viewed with approbation by GOD.
I think that what evolution is, and what creation is, are things that very few understand or agree on, and that is why the appear not to fit together to many.
God is neither a trickster nor a liar. He is the sovereign of the universe and it’s His world. He can create it to look however He wants it to look - aged or not. But, it is His world. Our job is not to critique Him on how He did it but to bow to Him as Creator.
Why?
