You are correct about this. My error.

May I prefer a legend from China? They have a history back 3000 years. I just wanted to know where the religious police might take over.

Given that China never developed a scientific outlook, maybe their relgious police took over that country. Taoist/Buddhists vagaries don't lend themselves to it. and it was left to the Jesuits to instruct the Confusionists in astronomy. As to the Catholic view of creation, I suggest you get hold of "In the Beginning..." a short (100 pages) reflection on Genesis by Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) (EERDMANS, 1995)
