The Book of Geniuses starts out with the Earth that was - and it was null and void. Each seed grew after it's own kind, as if the seed was already here. That means the Earth was already here and renovated. There very well could have been other life forms before us.
In many different Religions, there have been "ages" before ours. I think it was the Aztec's (?) that claimed there have been 6 ages, or Earths, before ours. This one is suppose to be the last chance.

Yeah. I can believe the Earth was used before. Why not?

No doubt everyone knows that the Moon used to be part of the Earth but was blown off when Earth smacked into a third Mars-sized body.

Stuff happens.

BTW, the green glass in Arabia's desert (the empty quarter) and the Western Desert in Egypt is readily explained ~ it's simply more visible than green glass elsewhere because these are desert regions.

Not to be mean, but if you don’t even know the name of the first book of the Bible, perhaps you shouldn’t be commenting on it.

Same here. We have NO CLUE how old this planet really could be, or who could have been here before us. There could have been people far more advanced than us living here, but they are gone, evidence of their existence erased by time.

If we all vanished right here, right now, 100,000 years from now(a blip in time in the grand scheme of things) it would be debatable whether or not we even existed. I don't believe we know nearly as much as we think we do. As a matter of fact, we are probably so clueless, we don't even know about what we don't know....
