"How do you balance Genesis and Macro Evolution? "

I don't believe Genesis gives a litteral description of the creation of anything. It is a figurative description of how God created man - He did it Himself from the dust of the earth (i.e. a lower creature). The Bible is not and never was meant to be a scientific text. Its a religious and moral text.

Don't you people realize how foolish you make ALL Christians look when you defy facts and all logic and adhere to a totally litteral perspective of this subject?
Don't you realize that that symbolism and allegory runs throughout the Bible and that unless you realize that and attempt to reconcile what we know through science with scripture, scripture winds up looking questionable?

God gave us the Bible, but He also gave us a brain. We should use it instead of mindlessly chanting section and verse and attempting to simplify what is an obviously complex process.

The same logic you are propounding here was used by the Inquisition when Galileo came out with his heliocentric theory of the solar system.

Stone Age Shepherds couldn't understand evolution. Evolution was not germaine to the message of the Bible.
God explained to them creation in a manner they could understand.

Don't you get it??

you people? Can a Zebra change its strips? Can a jerk show respect?

Defy Facts? What Facts do you have on the pre Garden era? How long was Adam in the Garden once he was placed there? When did this one man live and for how before Eve was created? How long together before banned from the garden? What went on outside the Garden during that time. You seem to think you have some facts on a place that cannot be found, please share.

foolish? Yes - it is foolish to think that man in his limited understanding knows what is fact and what is fiction in regards to God and His Works.

Don't you get it, you are not so big as you think you are.
