Now if this same personage, who does things in an instant; how LONG would it take Him to CREATE all that we find around us???

How long did it take him to "create" a St. Bernard and a French Poodle out of the same original dog ancestor?
How long did it take him to create bi-color corn out of the original corn plant?

If mankind can breed different varieties of animals and plants - why do you not think Nature can do the same thing?

And why would you not believe all of this has been conceived and planned by God?

Here's a couple more Biblical quotes for you:

And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
2:11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; 2:12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
2:13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
2:14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.

Explain to me how one river can be split 4-ways and end up in both Assyria and in Ethiopia when they are on 2 different continents??

3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever.

"one of us"?? Just who was God speaking to? What does he mean by "one of US"?

4:16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. 4:17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.

Where did Cain's wife come from? The Bible says that Eve bore Cain and then Abel - it doesn't say anything about her bearing anyone else. So just where did Cain's wife come from? Was she Cain's sister? If so, why does the Bible not mention her?

If you are going to say "just because Genesis doesn't say so - Eve had other children" then I say to you "just because Genesis doesn't say that God created evolution - he did."

If you want to start "interpreting" the Bible and say "well, what it really means is....", then why would YOUR interpretation be any more valid than mine or anyone elses?
