Then tell me; what was the light source on day 2 and day 3?

You tell me.
I have already expressed my belief as to what it was.

Genesis mentions the Sun being created as well as stars and a planet and most likely a moon. Is that all that populates the universe? What about quasi-stellar objects? Quasars. They are not stars nor galaxies yet emit far more energy than a galaxy. What about the Eagle Nebula? Not a star nor a planet yet it emits vast amounts of energy.
And what is light? Does the word 'light' mean to you 'visible light'? How can there be visible light when the first human eyeball had not been created yet? There is all kinds of 'light'.
Again, as I said, we could debate the finer points of Genesis for years and not cover it all. What makes it tiresome is the adversarial attitude you take towards me in your replies. If you wish to discuss these questions, I may indulge you. But not if you insist on maintaining this tone.
It's up to you.

No kidding.

Genesis also tells us that the Lord created the sun, moon and stars on day four.

If you feel free to place the Book of Genesis in the record, you certainly placed a record against yourself.


Genesis 1:14
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

Genesis 1:15
And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

Genesis 1:16
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: [he made] the stars also.

Genesis 1:17
And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

Genesis 1:18
And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that [it was] good.

Genesis 1:19
And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.


Now, do you still want to use the biblical account for evidence?

He made the stars on the fourth day.

It does not say that he made some stars.  It says that He made the stars.

One more time-what was the light on days two and three?
