Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. - Eph. 4:29
me, too. the A&E story has always read like a species coming to sentiency to me--i mean, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for cryin out loud--and ignoring the new dna evidence seems like saying the world is flat. If God can raise up followers from these rocks then really what is the issue. but these shows never seem to want to consider a holistic viewpoint, do they?

So unless i am mistaken i am assuming that you do not believe in a literal six day creation as put forth in gen?
you know the def of 'Lord's Day' might as easily apply as not; but no i guess it just seems natural to me, especially given the style those early passages are written in, to allow for other possibilities, at least. really, it doesn't affect my faith either way.
