Riight. No disagreement.
They were created from the earth. Just as the moon was formed from the collision of a large object and the earth.
Neither was "created" (as we think of it) from nothing, their matter already existed. But they could not be seen until the plants cleared up the atmosphere.
Then again, I could argue that this means that plants (now thought to be "only" 3 some-odd billion years old) were actually already present before the moon's collision at around 4 billion some-odd years ago.
We shall see. Science has been wrong before in confirming what the Book already said.
"Neither was "created" (as we think of it) from nothing, their matter already existed. But they could not be seen until the plants cleared up the atmosphere." Sorry, whether you think they were created from nothing or made from existing material, the verse says they were 'made', not made visible.
"Then again, I could argue that this means that plants (now thought to be "only" 3 some-odd billion years old) were actually already present before the moon's collision at around 4 billion some-odd years ago.
Do you think that's why the Book says, "...and there was evening and morning..." so that you could fit billions of years in there?
"We shall see. Science has been wrong before in confirming what the Book already said.
And is wrong now. That's why you should not accept science first and the Book second.
