And ask any "literalist" about the "how" of creation, or the paradoxes of Genesis 3, or the readily apparent metaphors in the Genesis account, and watch in amazement all the hand-waving and dismissive pshaws that accompany their rather embarrassing comic book theology.
The current flavor of fundamentalist "Biblical literalism" is a thoroughly modern phenomenon, and it has spawned an entire industry of imaginative, non-Biblical tall tales, making the very use of the word "literal" a patent absurdity.
I believe God made the present universe without any pre-existent materials.
I also believe He destroyed mankind, excepting 8 individuals, with a universal flood. I am not discounting supernaturalism in the flood.
Jesus and other New Testament writes referred to Noah, the flood, and the eight survivors.
As far as comic books, I have seen some pretty sketchy evolution drawings, including some on this thread. I have also seen some very professional, highly polished depictions, in print and film, of what happened in the past ages, millions of years ago, that are nothing but total fabrication from pure speculation, but presented as fact in the name of science.
