Michael, I don't believe that anyone here is deleting verses.
Honestly, the case against the historicity of Genesis has been building over the past two centuries. I'm not saying that Genesis isn't true, but...
There has been quite a bit of evidence against parts of it. I don't see how it can be irresponsible or sacreligious to question or reinterpret parts of the Bible that are inconsistent with obvious facts.
In fact, I would argue that faith crosses into fantasy when people interpret science to fit into heir own religious theology. In fact, this more than just disturbing--its dangerous.
It's not like people are trying to prove the Bible to be incorrect. People have discovered that parts of their theology are inconsistent with what they know to be scientifically true.
No, you're completely wrong. The case FOR the literal interpretation of Genesis has been increasing during the past several centuries. You clearly did not watch the video all the way through. If one cannot believe what the Bible says about creation, then that opens up any other part of the Bible to eventually being relegated as fiction or fairy tales. It's like the old saying says, "If you give them an inch, they'll take a mile." The controversy over "In God We Trust" being on our money began because of the ruling to take "In the beginning..." out of public schools.
Seven Reasons Why Christians Should NOT Accept Millions of Years:
1.) The Bible clearly teaches that God created in six literal, 24-hour days a few thousand years ago.
The Hebrew word for day in Genesis 1 is yom. In the vast majority of its uses in the Old Testament (OT) it means a literal day and where it doesnt the context makes this clear.
Similarly, the context of Genesis 1 clearly shows that the days of creation were literal days. First, yom is defined the first time it is used in the Bible (Gen. 1:45) in its two literal senses: the light portion of the light/dark cycle and the whole light/dark cycle. Second, yom is used with evening and morning. Everywhere these two words are used in the OT, either together or separately and with or without yom in the context, they always mean a literal evening or morning of a literal day. Third, yom is modified with a number: one day, second day, third day, etc., which everywhere else in the Old Testament indicates literal days. Fourth, yom is defined literally in Gen. 1:14 in relation to the heavenly bodies.
That these creation days happened only about 6,000 years ago is clear from the genealogies of Gen. 5 and 11 (which give very detailed chronological information, unlike the clearly abbreviated genealogy in Matt. 1) and other chronological information in the Bible.
2.) Exodus 20:11 blocks all attempts to fit millions of years into Genesis 1.
This verse gives the reason for Gods command to Israel to work six days and then take a Sabbath rest. Yom is used in both parts of the commandment. If God meant that the Jews were to work six days because He created over six long periods of time, He could have said that using one of three indefinite Hebrew time words. He chose the only word that means a literal day and the Jews understood it literally (until the idea of million of years developed in the early 19th century). For this reason, the day-age view or framework hypothesis must be rejected. The gap theory or any other attempt to put millions of years before the six days are also false, because God says that in six days He made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them. So He made everything in those six literal days and nothing before the first day.
3.) Noahs Flood washes away millions of years.
The evidence in Gen. 69 for a global catastrophic flood is overwhelming. For example, the Flood was intended to destroy not only all sinful people but also all land animals and birds and the surface of the earth, which only a global flood could accomplish. The Arks purpose was to save two of every kind of land animal and bird to repopulate the earth after the flood. The Ark was totally unnecessary, if the Flood was local. People, animals and birds could have migrated out of the flood zone before it occurred or the zone could have been populated from creatures outside the area after the Flood. The catastrophic nature is seen in the nonstop rain for at least 40 days, which would have produced massive erosion, mud slides, hurricanes, etc. The Hebrew words translated the fountains of the great deep burst open (Gen. 7:11) clearly point to tectonic rupturing of the earths surface in many places for 150 days, resulting in volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis. Noahs Flood would produce exactly the kind of complex geological record we see today worldwide: thousands of feet of sediments clearly deposited by water and later hardened into rock and containing billions of fossils. If the year-long Flood is responsible for most of the rock layers and fossils, then those rocks and fossils cannot represent the history of the earth over millions of years, as evolutionists claim.
4.) Jesus was a young-earth creationist.
Jesus consistently treated the miracle accounts of the Old Testament as straightforward, truthful, historical accounts (e.g., creation of Adam, Noah and the Flood, Lot and his wife in Sodom, Moses and the manna, and Jonah in the fish). He continually affirmed the authority of Scripture over mens ideas and traditions (Matt. 15:19). In Mark 10:6 we have the clearest (but not the only) statement showing that Jesus was a young-earth creationist. He states that Adam and Eve were at the beginning of creation, not billions of years after the beginning, as would be the case if the universe was really billions of years old. So, if Jesus was a young-earth creationist, then how can His faithful followers have any other view?
5.) Belief in millions of years undermines the Bibles teaching on death and on the character of God.
Genesis 1 says six times that God called the creation good and when He finished creation on Day 6 He called everything very good. Man and animals and birds were originally vegetarian (Gen. 1:2930, plants are not living creatures, as people and animals are, according Scripture). But Adam and Eve sinned, resulting in the judgment of God on the whole creation. Instantly Adam and Eve died spiritually, and after Gods curse they began to die physically. The serpent and Eve were changed physically and the ground itself was cursed (Gen. 3:1419). The whole creation now groans in bondage to corruption waiting for the final redemption of Christians (Rom. 8:1925) when we will see the restoration of all things (Acts 3:21, Col. 1:20) to a state similar to the pre-Fall world, when there will be no more carnivore behavior (Isa. 11:69) and no disease, suffering or death (Rev. 21:35) because there will be no more Curse (Rev. 22:3). To accept millions of years of animal death before the creation and Fall of man contradicts and destroys the Bibles teaching on death and the full redemptive work of Christ. It also makes God into a bumbling, cruel creator who uses (or cant prevent) disease, natural disasters and extinctions to mar His creative work, without any moral cause, but calls it all very good.
6.) The idea of millions of years did not come from the scientific facts.
It was developed by deistic and atheistic geologists in the late 18th and early 19th century. These men used anti-biblical philosophical and religious assumptions to interpret the geological observations in a way that plainly contradicted the biblical account of creation, the Flood and the age of the earth. Most church leaders and scholars quickly compromised using the gap theory, day-age view, local flood view, etc. to try to fit deep time into the Bible. But they did not understand the geological arguments nor did they defend their views by careful Bible study. The deep time idea flows out of naturalistic assumptions, not scientific observations.
7.) Radiometric dating methods do not prove millions of years.
Radiometric dating was not developed until the early 20th century, by which time the whole world had already accepted the millions of years. For many years creation scientists have cited many examples in the published scientific literature of these dating methods clearly giving erroneous dates (e.g., a date of millions of years for lava flows that occurred in the past few hundred years or even decades). In recent years creationists in the RATE project have done experimental, theoretical and field research to uncover more such evidence (e.g., diamonds and coal, which the evolutionists say are millions of years old, were dated by carbon-14 to be only thousands of years old) and to show that decay rates were orders of magnitude faster in the past, which shrinks the millions of years dates to thousands of years, confirming the Bible.
