>which did NOT happen until AFTER the plants created oxygen from the impenetrable and poisonous CO2 clouds at the beginning. (The moon was formed by collision before plant life has been found - though not much before.
I protest! CO2 is NOT poisonous. You can survive in a CO2/O2 concentration.
CO (Carbon-monoxide) _IS_ poisonous, in the sense that it bonds to your red blood-cell, like oxygen would, but then cannot [naturally] be unbound/utilized, thusly “killing” that blood-cell’s utility.
But I defy you to survive in the atmosphere BEFORE plants released the oxygen we now can breathe. 8<)
Again - What's critical is the sequence, the beautifully exact descriptions of the sequence of events in the story of creation - before “science” figured out the physics behind the story.
Example: In the beginning .... formless and void. But the earth had already been created! How - Because light had not condensed out of energy.
THEN, only after everything was created, did light come.
THEN, after light condensed further into solids - and only matter can cast shadows and “separate the light from the dark” - did matter as we know it could be created.
