No, you believe in one, extremely limited, interpretation of Genesis chapter 1.

I don't deny that. I believe in God, and I believe in the Bible. There's no comparison between Genesis and Darwinism. I could reinterpret Genesis, or any other part of the Bible, until I'm blue in the face. The truth is out there somewhere, so it might as well be the way it was written.

Besides, I don't think even God is patient enough to spend billions of years building the Earth to get to His greatest achievement - you and me.

"Besides, I don't think even God is patient enough to spend billions of years building the Earth to get to His greatest achievement - you and me."

Why not? How do you claim to know His thoughts and motivations?

Also, isn't it strangely prideful to claim that we're it - the top of the heap? Maybe we humble humans are NOT his end goal, or highest achievement - maybe we're just an intermediate step along the way...... I certainly don't claim to know.

You don't believe in an omnipotent god?
