mLine 161:
Line 161: − − Now, I know that at fifteen years old I may be the youngest one here, but I believe that I have the answer. The story of creation has to be taken allegorically because of the scientific impossibilities described in it. Other than the fact that everything is created out of order, the earth is described as being created flat. The bible depicts the sky as a bubble between two masses of water, and below the bubble as one half earth and one half ocean. I believe that we should take the story for what it means and not what it say: God created everthing and everyone. I do believe in the theory of evolution and genetic variations, but I also belive that God is the reason for those variations. I find it difficult to belive that one day there was a genetic fluke in a plant that made it split water molecules and use a series of photosystems to energize electrons in order to create ATP and NADPH. God made everything around us, but he made it out of the resources he had at hand - what he had already created. − ~Jake
