"Nothing is too difficult for Thee (GOD)". Sorry, but I'll believe the Bible before I would ever believe any layman!

Years ago, I heard a wonderful story. A Baptist preacher had a close friend who was a Biologist. One day at lunch, the Biologist told the Preacher, "After 25 years of study, I have finally discovered there are 5 major elements which make up the universe; time, force, motion, space and matter. The Baptist preacher started laughing and said, "You could have saved yourself 25 years by just reading the first line of the Bible:

In the beginning - Time
GOD - Force
created - motion
the heavens - space
and the earth - matter

I personally heard the Baptist preacher tell this story.

I don't doubt it, but I can't help wondering what the biologist's version of the encounter was like.
