Genesis 1
"The Beginning
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
The truth cannot be refuted...
Define what heaven is?
The second verse, 1:2 says the Earth was created, completely covered in water, but science say that the Earth was too hot to contain water. Even when the Earth cooled down to form the Earth’s crust, the whole Earth was never covered completely covered in water. So there were dry land long before there were enough water to surround the continental crust - the earliest supercontinent.
And verses 1:9-10 say dry lands only appeared then on the 3rd day, followed by creation of vegetation in 1:11-12.
So verse 1:2 and 1:9-10 are wrong.
Second, Genesis don’t mention anything about the sun, moon and stars til verses 1:14-18.
But in 1:11-12, vegetation were created before there were sun and stars.
What do you think sun is? The sun is also a star, and sun isn’t even the oldest in the Milky Way.
So 1:1 and 1:14-18 are wrong.
Verses 1:20-22 say that the marine life (eg fishes) and birds were created at the same time, and that birds were created before land animals (1:24-25).
But according to fossil records, bacteria have been around for billion of years (about 3.6 billion year), invertebrate animals for at least 700 million years, the earliest vertebrates were primitive fishes, less than 500 million years ago, and there were no birds around.
The earliest land animals were insects and primitive amphibians, amphibians that evolved into amniotes, repitile-like animals. The split of amniotes into
synapsids (ancestors of mammal-like and of the extinct and living mammals) and
sauropsids (ancestors of dinosaurs, extinct and living reptiles and birds) occurred around 312 million years ago.
True mammals exist as early as the Permian period, but did really diversify until after dinosaurs were extinct 66 million years ago.
The earliest true birds evolved from dinosaurs around 100 million years ago, but diversification of birds didn’t occur until most of the dinosaurs became extinct 66 million years ago.
So to say birds existing at the same time as fishes and other marine life, and before earliest reptiles and earliest mammals are wrong.
The only animals that didn’t change much, existing before, during and after the dinosaurs periods (Mesozoic) are the sharks and crocodiles.
