I read it. You are trying to pretend to be magnanimous and say "well, as long as you accept Him it is OK. The fact you know little about Him (assumed "unlike me" and "because you understand science") isn't THAT important.

I got your meaning exactly

If my posting the pertinent passages makes you feel attacked, I apologize to you sincerely. My intention is always to highlight what the Bible actually says to remove confusion. Many people who have not spent time reading the Bible only have other peoples idea's of what the Bible says. I laid the scripture out there for all to see, rather than attempt to explain what the Bible says. The passages are abundant and straightforward in their declaration.

You are welcome to post the passages that demonstrate these mean something different than they say. I am open to having the Word of God straighten me out.

Your post was pretty heavy handed. You suggest that because you have memorized the words of the Scriptures (I assume in their original languages), that you are somehow excluded from human interpretation.

There are 2 issues here: 1) Scripture is not a source of science and 2) Genesis is open to interpretation (and is contradictary).

The fact people have and do interpret the Bible differently doesn't mean they are wrong.
