So, I take it HD believes in evolutionary time scale when he says "zillions of years."

I believe history has been made. This is the first time I know of that you actually seem to indicate that you agree with the OT and the literal creation of 6, 24-hour days. When you have thought just about everything else in the OT was a myth, you are supporting the literal 6-day creation??? Fascinating.

As for me, I have never subscribed that creation was 6, 24 hour periods. I think the scriptures are inconclusive on this so rarely will you find me arguing about this. I think it's pointless without clear scriptural evidence.

I will add that I do not believe in the evolution of man although plant and animal life around them could have evolved. Adam and Eve could have been on this planet in the garden for millions of years before the fall. We have no way of knowing. People like to calculate the age of the earth by estimating biblical generations of 120 years but this reminds me of when I tried to estimate the depth of a pond based upon the slope of the ground. I estimated the pond to be 5,000 feet deep.

But man, unlike animals, is unique and depraved; and it all stems from Adam.

“But man, unlike animals, is unique and depraved; and it all stems from Adam.”

I take it you doubt that animal nature might have been twisted by man’s sin?
