I hope the writer doesn't fall into a humanhole because of a missing humanhole cover.
I asked him, what was God doing the day, the week, the month before he created humans? Nothing?
An omniscient Being who can and did create a universe by speaking it into existence was just sitting on his back porch in heaven doing nothing but sipping his mug of hot--albeit heavenly--cup of joe? He had never done anything, never created anything...was all alone except for attending angels?
Then one day (of a thousand years), all alone doing nothing FOREVER, having never done anything, he decides speaks humans--and no one else mind you--into existence?
I asked my acquaintance, "do you suppose that's even roughly the way it might have happened?"
