Is the [[biblical genealogy]] of Genesis 5 also allegorical and mythological? If so, what was the allegorical intent of the specific years and dates given for those people, the year at which they had the next son in their line, and the year they died? What of the fact that those genealogies are used literally throughout the Old Testament, and Matthew and Luke in the New Testament? Is the [[Great flood]] mythological? If so, what are we to do with the [[Table of Nations]], and the references to [[Noah]] by [[Jesus]] and [[Peter]] in the New Testament? Were the detailed stories of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph also allegorical? The theistic evolutionist must answer the question: Where does allegory end and history begin in Genesis? | Is the [[biblical genealogy]] of Genesis 5 also allegorical and mythological?

==What made 'Yom' a 24 hour day== | |||
Was a Yom created before or after the light was created and then separated to create darkness? It is clear in the Genesis writing that it was the separation of light and darkness that created a Yom. The only thing measured this way on earth, is a day which the length is determined by the earth's rotation speed. So for a Yom to mean a million years would mean that the change from light to darkness would take that long. Which would mean the earth's rotation would have been to slow to support life. Because a earth that rotated that slow would have fried on one side, and frozen on the other. Besides, the measurement of years were not created until Genesis 1:14. | Was a Yom created before or after the light was created and then separated to create darkness?

So Days were created before years. Besides, you have to have days before you can get years. So the order of the creation of time is correct. Because if years were created before days, then you could not answer how many days it takes to make a year. | So Days were created before years.

==Evolution makes you have to choose between God and science:== | |||
Why? Evolution is the "exact opposite of creation".<!-- This is where the table begins. Do not write below this. There is wording at the end of table to show where you can write.
