[Creationist]

God created Man on the 6th day. The creation process was complete. Yet also on that very same day God created a Garden and put Adam in it. With all the plants that were good to look at and eat. The then went about creating the kinds of animals for Adam to name. This does not mean every one only the kind. Dog kind, cat kind, ECT. Variations excluded. Genesis 2:4 is a summary of the creation not a forward of the next verses. The next verses are of Adam and Eve in the Garden on the 6th day. Not a different account of creation.

This is what those who believe in evolution will have you, I and everyone else to believe. This is so that can instill doubt in believers

Fine. Let's ignore verse 2:4 for now. That leaves us with:

no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth and no plant of the field had yet sprung up ... the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground.

That is very precise: Man was created before the plants. The process was *not* complete, as depending on your interpretation either no plants existed at all or none of the food plants existed yet. It does not say there were no plants "on the earth where the Garden would eventually be", it specifically says "on the earth."

So how did the 'variations' come about?
You know, the lion, cheetah & wolf kind ...
