I believe that DallasMike is working on a word-study to explain how the terms 'evening' (ereb) and 'morning' (boqer) as applied to the use of the word for day (yom) are absolutely, positively inappropriate for 6 literal 24-hour days of creation in Genesis.
LOL!!!!
I would be interested in such a study. It’s an interest of mine.
While I think the universe is much older than GGG does, it must be said that what we are trying to do is look at a shoe and try to figure out what shape of foot went into it.
Some shapes and sizes will fit better than others but until we see the foot we don’t know for certain and arrogant assertions that imperfect models based upon very incomplete information are “fact” is folly.
The YEC have a point in that Darwinism has required very long times for evolution to work so any age of the universe has to allow for at least that much time in their view.
But where I fault the YEC is in saying the time of the “days” of Genesis must incorporate “In the Beginning..” and hence the creation of the whole universe or “world” as the article says.
