"No, I do have success. However, I have to do extra work to show them that nutball theories pushed by people like GodGunGuts are not representative of authentic Christianity."

How is putting the word of men over the word of God now representative of 'authentic' Christianity? Are you claiming that gnosticism is 'authentic Christianity'?

"So tell me, Dan: Do a word study on the word yom as used in Genesis and get back to me on why it absolutely, positively has to mean a literal 24-hour period in the first two chapters."

So tell me, Mike: Do a word study on the words 'evening' and 'morning' as used to describe the yom in Genesis and get back to me on why it absolutely, positively does not mean literal 24-hour periods in the first two chapters.

Don't just make snide comments and run away. Do some research and convince me why I am wrong. I'm open to hearing you out.

Because it contradicts what God has revealed to us through his creation. You and GGG ignore how God has spoken to us through his revelation and cling to a man-made tradition.

Who are you going to believe, your warped theology or God's revelation? I'll stick with God.

Your turn to get back to me on your in-depth word study.

The answer to both questions is no. I don't know anything I've said that would cause you to make those assumptions.
