Re: Evolution Roll Call
I don't think survival of the fittest and adaptibility to the environment can account for things like the evolution of a heart, blood, a brain, or the ability to think, from organisms without those things. I don't think those things could have developed from mutations either.

Perhaps God used evolution to create.
It says "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground" How long did He take "forming" man? It does not say. It just says what he did and what He used, not how long it took.

Re: Evolution Roll Call
My view was only represented as other in your list. I believe in creation but not in 6 literal days. In fact, the basis for our understanding of time (Sun/Moon) does not even appear in the creation story until "day" 4. I do believe in adaptation and survival of the fittest but not in any way that would explain the origin of life.

Re: Evolution Roll Call
I believe the 7 day account was the 7 days that God revealed the beforehand to Moses.
Remember God walked past Moses and only showed him his hinder parts.
Therefore Moses was shown the backside of time.
The evening and the morning were the first day of this account to Moses.
Then on the 78th day of the this accounting to Moses God rested and the beforehand story was told.
The amount of time that could be measured within those days of accounting belong only in the knowledge of God.
We however have unearthed many of the fossils from time periods gone by..
Why are so many of these fossils being unearthed today?
Because in generations past they did not believe there was anything out there...
Who knows it is not about what happened before the Cross that counts it is what happend after the cross.
That goes for history and our own lives...

If you look at the next verse it gives God the credit for the opperation of the above verse.So I believe that Gen 1:20 give us an expaination of how God created the Wales and fish and fowl.

I agree!
I believe that science attempts to explain how.
The Bible explains who.
Science cannot explain exactly how modern man arrived on the scene. We often hear of "the missing link".
I believe God is that link, since science will not acknowledge God, they miss the answer.
We had a pretty good discussion on this here.
