Here's the original creation story as the Hindu creation story pre-dates Judaism by a few thousand years...

Day and night first, then waters, then sky and land, wind, and so on... Remarkably, the Biblical account closely tracks that of the Hindu original. So how can you claim the Hindu story is not the original, correct story?

Or how about the American Indian creation story with the forming of man from mud, and the creation of the soul by the Earthmaker? How about that one?

In short, why do you believe the Biblical account over these other, equally old (or older) accounts from other religions that have the same timelines and details?

Because it IS Biblical and since the God of the Bible is real and trustworthy, what He tells us is.

My acceptance of the creation account isn’t based on which one men say is the oldest, it’s based on the integrity of Scripture.
