You are trying to create an issue where one doesn't exist. The "two" accounts of creation in Genesis are of the same events. The first, obviously, is a chronological account. The second focuses on man as the pinnacle of God's creation. These are the same events, just told from a different perspective. You find the same thing in the New Testament. The gospels basically tell the same story but focus on different details. As far as your assumption that different theologies of God are presented, I have no idea how you are arriving at that conclusion. The entire Bible is full of different descriptions of God. Some focus on the human qualities, others on the kingly qualities, others on the servant qualities, and so on. All, however, point to one God.

No, really, I'm not trying to create an issue. I'm trying to give an example as to why I believe there were 4 different authors of the Pentatuch. That's it.
