Exactly. It’s like arguing over the color for vestments or pew cushions. We’ll all find out what happened the minute we meet the Lord.
On the contrary. If God’s word is untrue regarding the creation, it is untrustworthy on every other point.
Vestments and pew cushions are inventions of men, and have no bearing on the veracity of the Scriptures. Quibbling over them is pointless.
God’s word, on the other hand, is deserving of scrutiny - and will survive it unscathed. Not only that, but the exercise itself increases faith in Him. (Like a witness who endures cross-examination, and his testimony comes through as reliable and trustworthy.)
Consider “doubting” Thomas: He demanded to be able to examine Jesus’ wounds. And when HE was convinced, that gives even greater weight to the eye-witness testimony preserved for us.
