| I am about to give an account of the creation of the world
using religion and science (arguably a religion in itself)...this is of course,
after comparing the beginning of the world according to the old testament's
Genesis and the beginning according to the Qur'an as well as the knowledge of
the scientific creation according to the crap pounded into our brains since
preschool. As well as assuming that every old religion has basically the same
initial components of a higher being or beings (beings are basically just a
skeptical society's version of one single power because they don't believe on
thing can be that powerful) creating the universe and the world etc.
So, first off is the big bang. This is what God used as a tool to create heaven
and the earth. Basically heaven is the universe and earth is, well, itself. At
first the earth was shapeless and void meaning this is the shapless cloud of
rock and dust. Next the bible says that darkness hovered over the deep and the
face of God hovered over the waters. Since there is still no time at all, just
sequences of events, this means that the shapeless mass of rock and dirt went
through the molten stage of formation. It also says that there was water over
the water which means that the water underneath is water and lava and the water
above is heaven.
Next, he said "Let there be light, and there was
light" THEN he separated darkness and light so that there were to be days.
Such was the first day.
Shortly/Immediately he made an expanse to separate the water
from the water (the water from the earth and the water from heaven) and then
called the expanse sky. Then, it says there was morning and night. However it
does not mean that they can happen to the same spot because the sun was not
created yet, only the concept of light had been created by that point.
Next, he had the water under the sky gather to one place and
create dry ground (implying that there is already "wet" ground
underneath the water, thereby giving us the core and the plates), hence
Pangaea, one large mass of land with rivers and streams and such allowing the
waters to pass through to the gathered waters he dubbed seas. Shortly after he
created vegetation and plants to bear seeds and fruits and stuff how they
would.
Now, God had not created the greater lights, the sun and the
moon yet. Which means that all the mornings and evenings thus far have been
whenever God has deemed it right to be morning or evening. Aka the first three
days have no real measure of time at all and can thusly be proven to be
immeasurably long (which is why the actual earth itself is over four billion
"years" old. Thereby meaning that evolution of the plants and beings
from here could have actually happened because there exists a "time
frame" long enough to suit it. After the creation of the sun and moon
there came seasons to mark the months and years, further proving that there
were no current earth days at all, nor infact were there current "earth
years" yet.
On the fifth day he
created creatures of the water and the sky, so there are water beasts and
flying things only, nothing really living on the land…………..on the sixth day he
then created land based things. Note that this is after water based creatures
were created. Which means that he very well could have made the aquatic animals
exit the water and live on the land to be livestock, thereby proving evolution,
only in a much quicker timeframe than Darwin
supposes it could happen in. However, Darwin or any scientist has not really
realized that their precious carbon dating that they put so much FAITH into, is
not an entirely correct method to measure the “age” of anything. The carbon
dating system works in such a way that anything before a certain number of
years of age cannot have its age correctly identified as it shows an age much
larger than should be. However, how do they know that the objects that they
find that are so many millions of years old are not really just a couple
thousand years old and they can’t properly identify its age, despite the half
life of that particular carbon species.
According to the
timescale of the events in the bible, after the sun and moon were created, the
world and its beings are really only a little over four thousand years
old. Another thing to be noted, the
“blue shift”, a concept that has shown the objects of the universe gradually
getting farther apart, can also be used upon the earth. How do we know that
since the creation the earth hasn’t moved farther from the sun, giving us
longer days. The world is four thousand years old according to our current
Earth years. This does not mean that it couldn’t be older…a ton of years of
civilization could have passed during a time when days were not 24 hours, but
even shorter, meaning that the Roman’s years could have gone by much quicker
than the years in the Victorian era. Einstein has proved that time is relative
based on the position of ones self to another object.
Now, since the
world was all as one when man was created with the beasts, we can therefore
conclude that the dinosaurs coexisted with man and the livestock and all the
plants and stuff. Also, the world was all one big mass still. Meaning that if
one very large meteor were to hit the water, it would then FLOOD the entire
world and cause CRACKS in the ground under the water. Since there is a story
about a great flood in pretty much every single civilization ever to exist, it
can only be concluded that it wasn’t just a flood in the “dead sea” like
historians think at the moment, it was a flood of the entire effing world. And
the only reason humans and their livestock and other animals survived was
because humans were smart enough to bring a few animals of every kind they
could (they couldn’t grab dino’s cause they were too big) so they could
repopulate the world. The story of Noah is just one account encompassing the
trials of humans around the lump of dry ground. OK, so since the meteor crashed
and cracked the earth, it was now prone to movement, hence the tectonic plates.
And since there was movement, which is slowing now, it separated the earth into
different parts and also allowed parts of land to be drained of the water that
was covering it, which was the main cause of slow, large sea animals being
beached and thereby become extinct. Also, since the earth was moving from the
one place that was great for all its life, different adaptations had to occur
from each of the species of animalia/vegetation in order to survive the new
conditions.
It could
also be said that after the meteor hit the earth, it became tilted and was
shifted into a different orbit of the sun, thereby creating a different
duration of day. And since orbits take a little while to settle into, the
aspect of time could be erratic. Also, before the meteor, the days could have
been exceedingly long, allowing for a lot to happen in a “year”. Which, in
turn, also means that our concept of years cannot be properly tied to the
“evolution” of the earth and can verify the concepts of creation stated by
religion by way of the “scientific”, detailed “history” of the world. Also
proving that science is just as much of a religion as religion is. Everything
is based on faith that certain things happened. And most of science, most
notably geology, paleontology, biology, and astronomy, relies on specific time
references to base their theories and assumptions that really can’t be as exact
as they want them to be…aka it’s just faith in science and religion is just
faith in what one can’t really explain.
Ok, interesting food for thought? I realize there are a few
contradictions in every holy book, but there are just as many in science. Also,
think about the statement that God created heaven and the earth. How did God
exist before there was existence? Then think about the fact that the universe
was called water. Could it possibly mean that our universe/heaven is just a
part of a greater, super universe? We only say universe because we think it’s
too big to have any more of them. But really, could God just be one of many
higher beings that are in charge of numerous microcosms, just as there are
microcosms here on earth and on other planets.
Isn’t thinking fun?
*edit* Fletcher made me think more in depth about where a lot of the water went after the flood. I think since the earth was tilted and moved into a different orbit after the meteor, the angle of rotation was enough that the polar ice caps were created. Before, the earth was too close to the sun for it to matter, but after the meteor the earth must have moved farther from the sun, thereby allowing that sort of climate change.
