You didn't answer my question. Why are you assuming a literalist interpretation? That has been abandonded long ago.

if people were formed on day three as your are describing in chapter 2, then the totality of a person is not in the form of the likeness of God.
is not God an ECHAD of himself? mis not Adam an ECHAD of himself also?

was not the Last to Come, and did bot Eve come after Adam?

think about it

did 101G say that everything in Genesis CREATION is Literal, please show me that post.
Yes, but they are not in the Bible. You do not even now what those terms mean.
did you read post #41. and 101G is fully aware of what they mean

I'll think about it; but, we debated for quite a while on the unity of God. My belief is that God is a unity without division. Adam is a unity including divisions that's in Gen 1. Eve, in my view, was included in Adam before she was built from him.

The last to come is a tricky concept for me. I believe that God is eternal, beyond time, and this means God is both first, last, and everything inbetween.

your unity is our "Diversity"..... (smile), the EQUAL SHARE in flesh. the Equal share is no division......
Adam is a unity including divisions
this is what the Greek calls G2087 heteros. 101G is G243 Allos, big difference.

yes, only in dispensations of TIME, PLACE, ORDER, and RANK. just as the term beginning states in Genesis 1:1

There are many misconceptions from man about what was created/Made, When and where, or how many.
let's discuss from the bible these misconceptions.

#1. Man was formed on day 3, before any animals, and was made male and female on day 6.

#2. Adam and Eve had Children.in the Garden of Eden before they had Cain and Able outside the Garden.

#3. There were no pre-Adamic Race.

from these three Truths, all other questions are answered, as to A. Where did Cain get his wife from? B. Who are the son of God in Genesis chapter 6, (and they are not angels) C. Why is Cain not mention in Adam genealogy, since he was supposing to be Adam firstborn ...... son? as well as why Abel is not in Adam genealogy?

by understanding the TRUTH of these three misconceptions above, a correct and truthful understanding of God's creation can be accomplish and held in "Faith" by true believers.

That great for Christians, worthless for science.

We already know what creates things.

Animate and inanimate matter and energy.

Atoms are amazing.

I much prefer the idea of differing conceptions to misconceptions. A misconception is saying to others that you're right, and they got it wrong. It isn't helpful to this world in times of conflict.

Around 500 BC man created the Genesis story of creation on whatever day that was when earth was 4.5+ billion years old.

It isn't helpful when the differing conceptions don't matter to real life. If this was in Scriptural Debates, nobody would bat an eye. But it is in Science and Religion and we have standards in science and it is dangerous to erode them.
If @101G wants to discuss the scripture, I urge him to let the mods move this. Otherwise he'll have to defend the science part and that may become ugly with his attitude.
