Thank you so much for your excellent essay-post!

The astonishing ingenuity of God in the execution of His divine plan seems to me to be beyond the ability of humans to fully comprehend. But we can see what He has accomplished, and can have some imperfect sense of how He went about doing it. That is because the created, physical universe is not the "all that there is," but Spirit is mixed into it through and through.

To God goes all glory for the entire universal creation, not just Earth.

Indeed. Praise God!

The words of God are spirit and they are life. Spiritual Truth is hidden in plain view.

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life. - John 6:63

I submit that Genesis needs to be discerned Spiritually. It conveys the Spiritual Truth of Creation - but not all of the details in its some 35 sentences. It is not a text book.

To God be the glory!

Wow, we actually agree on something 100%! There's hope. :)
