How condescending and ignorant.

Are you mad at Odin? Must be - that is why you don't believe in his power and authority.

Odin? Who's Odin? Is he one of those Greek mythology guys? Nephilim? Nah, I'm not mad him. I don't even know him.

It's not condescending nor ignorant. You're just in a different place in your walk with the Lord is all. He gives us what we need. That's all.

Stop avoiding the real problem you and others have concerning the truth of the scriptures
and of God as Creator against your unbelief.
There is a bit of truth in all creation myths and religious texts as pertains to human nature, however, it's all the supernatural superstitions inherent in belief systems that have no basis in reality.

Eventually, you'll come to realize how wrong you are.

I'm praying for you...that Allah will show you the TRUTH. Did something bad happen to you in life? Stop being mad at him and humble yourself before him. Drop your pride and man made knowledge and religion. I KNOW him, he talks to me, I have seen miracles, I feel him and Islam will be the number 1. Religion in a few decades. That must mean it is true! Just please, I beg you before it is too late!!!!1
Of course it is up to you, he gave us free will. But if you don't choose right....there is literal hell to pay. He loves you much, open your heart and he will show you himself, after you believe in him.

What has any of that to do with the truth of God's word?
Genesis 1 is a direct challenge by God against all other myths, legends, beliefs, and false sciences.

Genesis 1 is myth, and treating it as such in no way takes away from it's intended purpose.

We are not going to myth-understand Genesis 1.

There are older creation stories in the bible itself too. So why choose the genesis one (which is actually two) over the others? The majority of Judaism and Christianity have constantly and to this day believe the creation stories are allegory. Maybe, because it is!

Yeah, but He knows you, and He's just waiting for you to call out His name.

Really. Then why did God write it this way?

You think God wrote it? That's nice.

I would think that he probably intended it to be allegorical. On the other hand, given his omniscience, this does seem unlikely as he should have realized that C20th fundamentalists haven't got the subtlety or wit to understand such nuances.

Yes.

1 Thessalonians 2:13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

It doesn't matter how He wrote it; there will always be those who take it wrong.

Almost seems like writing wasn’t a very good way to share such crucial information.
