However, it is not this light that indicates day and night, but the path of the sun and the moon through the sky. Again, which begs the question, "How could there be 'the evening and the morning' on the first day if there was no sun to mark them?"

How so?

If the term "day" in the creation account refers to a period of time other than the one that man recognizes as day, then it does not "establish understanding," but creates confusion.

Nearly all life on Earth is directly or indirectly dependent upon photosynthetic processes for energy. Without energy, photoautotrophic plant life cannot grow or reproduce.

That the moon emits energy in the form of light is factually incorrect. If The Bible contains information that is factually incorrect, then it is not inerrant.

Considering that 10,000 new species of insect are discovered each year; no, he did not.

This does not change that snakes did not have legs, or that they do not eat dust.

This does not change that plants had no need of natural defenses before Eve tasted the fruit of the tree of knowledge; prior to this transgression, death did not exist.

This does not answer my question; does it or does it not follow from the supposed lack of archaeological evidence for "transitional species" that Evolution is not valid?

* in the time of the Tower of Babel where the languages were all mixed up, people of the same language flocked together and moved to a place/country of their own, from there, their bodies adapted to what kind of climate their country has...
* just my hunch... 🙂

* it could create confusion if we will insist that the six days of creation is literal 24-hour days...
* but since it was written that the sun, moon & stars were created in the fourth day, it really is not 24-hour day...

* i know, i got your point... that's why i'm saying that the trees were not planted, they need not photosynthesis because they were created, they were not planted... in parallelism, Adam and Eve did not start out as fetuses...

* i really don't know what's the problem with this topic... the moon serves as the lesser light in the evening... whether the origin of the light came from the sun, by which the moon only reflects it, it does not matter and it is irrelevant... what was relevant is, the moon serves as the lesser light in the evening... it's not a Biblical error...

* well, if we are going to be strict Biblically, it's nachash in Hebrew, it says it's a serpent, a snake or a dragon... and it's a masculine noun... so it really is not a literal snake perse, it might be a snake, a serpent or a dragon according to Hebrew transliteration...

* because i'm not answering you, i'm saying you tell me since it is you who stated that giants did not exist due to lack of archaeological evidences... 🙂
