No idea what you're talking about, but sure, you're free to believe whatever you want.
You're still not making much sense. My point was just to make sure people understand that your beliefs about embedded age aren't shared by many other Christians (I can't think of any denomination that teaches it).I believe this is academia's go-to rendition of Genesis 1:

So people can critique embedded age all they want.
Until they come up with something better ... well ...
So should I accept that subset of academia that shares Babylon's rather unique beliefs, whose beliefs are not reflective of Christianity as a whole?
It's not worth much trouble to critique it. It's best to just ignore it.I believe this is academia's go-to rendition of Genesis 1:

It's no different than the Christians here arguing for a flat earth or geocentrism. Non-Christians hopefully appreciate how those are just fringe beliefs and not reflective of the majority of believers.

And they'll stay fringe beliefs as long as academia -- even when invited to discuss embedded age -- prefers to talk about anything and everything but embedded age.
Like a student in math class wanting to discuss geography, then complaining he failed math class.
That's one way to spin it and I'm sure it's also shared with flat earthers, geocentrists, and adherents to every strange made up belief.And they'll stay fringe beliefs as long as academia -- even when invited to discuss embedded age -- prefers to talk about anything and everything but embedded age.

Personally, AV, I'm not really overly concerned by your choice of interpretation for Genesis chapter 1.
As long as it's done with humility.Actually, I'm going to be on the side that thinks it's useful to engage in since it plays into the way in which any of us perceives what the collective message(s) of the Bible may tell us.
Those issues at least have some relevance to my daily life.Ya -- better to discuss the resurrection, Corinthian creeds, the price of tea in China, and our President, isn't it?

Understanding it might help ... ya think?
And how are you going to understand it, unless you ask questions?
Isn't that the academic way?
Probably about as strange as a spherical earth comes across to flat earthers.I don't think you realize how "strange" cosmic evolution comes across to us either.
Sure, except embedded age has no basis in scripture or science and is effectively just made up."Strange" and "made up" are relative terms, are they not?
I already essentially understand it ...
No comment.

You wanted questions on embedded age. I asked my question and you answered it. What more do you want?Well I'm glad you can come into my thread, where I invite academia to discuss embedded age, and find relevance to your daily life with your disrespectful side issues.
