Also, Satan invented dinosaurs.

If not, then who did? God?

God allowed Satan to invent dinosaurs. Satan had to askn him to do it.

IOne off.

Also, wgty are people scared of snakes? Dumb question. Forget I asked.

Just that one question.

If it lives then God created it for he is the creator, even of dinosaurs.

Six of God's days, which I believe are "ages" (of His)... And God brought about or gave rise to dinosaurs long ago (silly)...

And snakes ca be seen as "creepy" to some...

God Bless!

This is an...interesting thread.

God created the Earth in 6 days, just like it says in the Bible.
Dinosaurs most likely existed during the time period before the flood. But I'm not entirely sure that Satan can make anything physical, not in the way that God can. So God created them or at the very least, allowed them to come into being.
Snakes can be dangerous. They're fun to look at...at a distance. Why are people afraid of anything??

Can't get on board with the "Satan invented dinosaurs" thing because of John 1:3. All things were made by Him (referring to Jesus, the living Word of God) and without Him nothing was made that has been made. If anything ever did exist, God made it. Satan never made anything.

Who are you speaking to and what are you trying to say...?
Just quoting Scripture...

Genesis 1:5 (KJV) And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

Exodus 20:11 (KJV) For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

I thought it was quite obvious.

I believe God set all in motion billions of years ago. But, what is a billion years to an eternal Spirit?

I am not disputing that the Bible is true and correct, but this brings up some questions. I ask in earnestness, because I think the larger issues here are:

1.) Is every word of the Bible always literal? For example, in Matthew 23 when Jesus called the Pharisees "snakes," did He literally mean that they are legless reptiles? Hey, Pharisees, you're snakes. The Lord said so. Get down on the ground and start slithering, because that's what snakes do. Or wasn't He instead using figurative language to make His point?

2.) If some of the Bible is using symbolism and/or figurative language, how do we know for sure what parts are literal? Using the word "day," as the quoted passages do, has been done symbolically. Haven't we all heard an older person say something like, "Back in my day, kids had respect for their elders." "Day" doesn't mean a literal 24-hour period in this context. It could very well mean a literal 24-hour period in the Biblical passage. God is certainly powerful enough. He didn't even need six days to accomplish it. He could have done it all in an instant. But how do we know that this passage does refer to a literal day, rather than a symbolic one?

3.) Can a passage, or any statement, be true without being literal? (I vote yes.)

eastern philosophy is different than western. in the west we put high emphasis on the facts and the information to find the truth. if there are no facts then there is no truth. in the east they put high emphasis on the truth and then fill the information that fits the truth best so it is fluid. What's more important in the creation account is the truth it points to over the details that bring it there and the details should be looked that which agrees with the truth but not necessarily facts themselves.
