I don’t believe human beings evolved from a mud puddle,I believe in what the Book of Genesis says, so you go ahead and be secure in your evolution theory and I’ll go ahead and be secure in my belief of Scripture !!!

I can’t tell if you are trying to be a parody or not.

So I’ll give a straight answer in case you are being serious.

I also don’t believe that the first life evolved from a mud puddle.

As for Genesis. When God spoke to me he did not reveal any new science. If his pattern is consistent (and it appears to be from people’s interactions with God) it seems he does not reveal science but talks to us in a way we can understand.

When the Pentateuch was written down by Moses, he was limited by his time. As modern educated Americans have so much trouble understanding what a billion years is, its not reasonable to expect Moses to truly understand the age and scope of the observable universe.
