Works for me. My point is that in G_d ALL things are possible. Some people just do not get it.

Yes, even abiogenesis, if you take Gen. 1 :11-12 literally. "And God said let the earth bring forth grass ... and the earth brought forth grass."

Humanistically, one can suppose that the authors deprecated the significance of plants vis a vis animals, since animals are granted special creation in Gen. 1:21, but literally, I don't see how the grass can be rescued from its mundane status.

This is a trap, you see, since by our modern understanding, grass has DNA and all the rest, and its relegation to the realm of the "earth", i.e. the merely material, would be fatal to creationist doctrine.
