"But then you are assuming the naturalist's POV that the earth was formed in a molten state. Add another assumption to your model."

And does your assumption about Genesis 2

"And the Earth was without form..."

Lead you to believe otherwise?

(Take care; you are dealing with believing Christians who also just happen to be scientists...)

" And does your assumption about Genesis 2. "And the Earth was without form..." Lead you to believe otherwise?"

Do you then believe that 'without form' means that oceans existed on top of a molten earth? Or are you splitting that one sentence to separate 'without form' from 'darkness on the face of the deep' (meaning sea) to be separated by vast quantities of unobserved time.

"(Take care; you are dealing with believing Christians who also just happen to be scientists...)"

Really? You're quite indistinguishable from run-of-the-mill naturalists.
