Science and the Bible are not in opposition

never said they were.

but, properly understood, are complementary. As for “science supports Genesis,” just how does science support the universe and man being created in six days

The order of creation for starters.

We also have the account of the Flood which science does confirm.

Now, I will say from a science perspective you cannot explain the creation of everything in six days. This is where the trust in God comes into play.

If God cannot create all things in six 24 hour days, or six minutes, or seconds...then, the other miracles in the Bible are called into question as I previously noted.

A lack of faith in God's ability to create undermines His ability to bring the dead back to life....that is Christ.

Just how does science confirm The Flood? And why should God limit himself to six days of creation instead of the immense span of time that science says was necessary? And if your account is true, why would God have Creation rife with objective measures of time like radioactive decay and astronomical observations that refute the six days stated in Genesis?
