Should you leave your church?

[Jack777]

The Bible does not say that God created everything in six days.

Ipse dixit is good to say. It has a certain flair.

I like res judicata and agricolae pugnant too.

I wouldn't let my church to take a stand on one of these theories.

If there was a Noachian global flood, how come dinosaur fossils aren't located alongside cattle, lamb, birds, and any other animals used as burnt offerings in Biblical times? And yes, how come there's no human fossil alongside them? Paluxy doesn't count!

One more thing, I believe that the role of the church is to unite all believers regardless of their belief in creationism. Let's face it, many Christians are fragmented by many things--social class, income level, material possessions, etc. Don't let such debate alienate us any further!

where in the bible does it say God created the earth?

i am a distinction, i believe in YOUNG LIFE, not young earth, i can't tell from scripture how old the actual physical earth is, for it starts with God floating in it.

Now, it is pretty clear God created everything in it in 6 days.

where in the bible does it say God created the earth?

Genesis 1:1, KJV "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the EARTH." (all caps mine)

Obviously, it did not say HOW LONG did God create them.
