There is always the possibility that there was a war - and it affected Mars.
The late Pastor Arnold Murray of the Shepherd's Chapel of Arkansas taught for years that the correct translation in Genesis 1- is the earth BECAME viod and without form. And I have noted throughout the years that translation is been used by other ministers.

Genesis 1:2 and the earth became without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God-Elōhīm [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] moved upon the face of the waters. | New Messianic Version Bible (NMV) | Download The Bible App Now

The Earth Becomes “Without Form and Void,” Part 2

Plus after God created the male and female he told them to be fruitful and multiply and REPLINISH the Earth. Why would he tell them to replenish the Earth unless life on Earth had suffered some type of catastrophe.
Didn't dinosaurs roam the Earth for millions of years and all of a sudden became extinct from what is said to be asteroid impacts.
The Bible tells us there was a war in heaven and Michael and his angels fought in the dragon and his angels fought.
Could Earth have been caught in the middle of it, as well as Mars? From my point of view Earth is Eden and Lucifer walked in the Garden of God long before mankind was created - when ALL the sons of God gather together and sing.

It doesn't agree with the Septuagint Greek translation, and I'm confident the Jewish scribes who translated their Scriptures into Greek had a solid grasp of the meaning of words in their language.

"If you construct a grammatically complex sentence, with a sufficient number of polysyllabic words, and at least one parenthetic clause, then you can reasonably conclude that some gullible readers will think the author to be erudite."

From my understanding they really don't know who translated the original Hebrews scrolls into Greek. These are the legends

When was the Bible translated into the Greek language? – The Septuagint

Septuagint | biblical literature

I don't know Hebrew I can only write of what my studies bring about.

Hebrew Word Definition: Day | AHRC

yō·wm | Day in Bible creation account is geological age

Your statement makes me wonder how days can be translated into years or 70 weeks into years. Seems like the translators would know how the Hebrew used they're wordings.

Does "days" in prophecy equal "years" (Daniel 9 - Seventy Weeks)

Why Is There No Record of Ancient Humans

There are records of ancient humans.

We have homo sapiens sapiens grave remains dating back nearly 80,000 years. We have manufactured artefacts from homo sapiens sapiens dating back better than 55,000 years. We have homo sapiens pottery from ~30,000 years ago.


Carlson doesn't even appear to have the basics of early human archeology and paleontology. Or at least understand the difference between anatomy and behaviour.
