3and Good saith, `Let light be;' and light is. (Time inishall energy outside the unity iniseated the big bang)
4And Good seeth the light that [it is] good, and Good separateth between the light and the darkness, ( the four primary forces iniseate Gravity is first seporated out)
5and God calleth to the light `Day,' and to the darkness He hath called `Night;' and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day one. ( photon boundary four primary forces exist photons begin)
6And God saith, `Let an expanse be in the midst of the waters, and let it be separating between waters and waters.'( Good gives it time to expand)
7And Good maketh the expanse, and it separateth between the waters which [are] under the expanse, and the waters which [are] above the expanse: and it is so.( separation of dark mater and matter)educated gues T minus one
8And Good calleth to the expanse `Heavens;' and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day second. (Good lets it expand)
9And Good saith, `Let the waters under the heavens be collected unto one place, and let the dry land be seen:' and it is so.( Matter begins to condense into first primary suns)Waters = plazma

Christians have become notorious for taking a scientific theory, taking the bible and trying desperately to fit the two together. If the bible was truly a divine inspiration, there would be no explanation needed. The fact that explanations are needed speaks all we need to know. It's a man-made book, written by men 2,000+ years ago.

Personally, I do not believe in any kind of religion. I think all religions (Christianity, Judaism, Islam and Hinduism) are all false. While I don't know much about Buddhism, I think it comes the closest to being true as it is the religion that has a heavy foundation in nature and human nature. Those are universal principles and not specific people, places or edicts which are very easy to pin down and show to have flaws about them.

That being said, I don't agree with your line of argument. You say "The fact that explanations are needed speaks all we need to know." Who needs explanations? Man or God? Man needs them. The fact that we need explanation tells you nothing of what "we need to know." People need all kind of things and our needing all kinds of things tells you absolutely nothing except that we are a needy species.

I wasn't clear enough. I meant an explanation of what the bible says, as in to apply it to modern science. I was trying to make the point, that the fact that what the bible says is contrary to what science has shown, trying to explain the differences for the bible, and twisting the bible to match the science says all we need to know about the bible.

I agree we need explanations of nearly everything.

I am not desperate there fore your definition of Christian is invalid.

Perhaps it is your belief nothing contains absolute truth.

That you perhaps establish a 0 truth basis may be a cultural necessity however it lacks wisdom.

We can agree to disagree if it suits you.

Can you tell me where the contradictions lie between the Bible and science?

Perhaps ancient man had vision and lack of knowledge.

Perhaps now we lack the vision and have knowledge.

I doubt atheists could compete with the vision early man had.

Give early man some credit he was your Gene pool.

Of course the text 2000+ years ago are scientifically wrong. And just because it is divine inspiration doesn't mean that there would be no needed explanation. If it was written to be scientifically accurate, how many people back 2000+ years ago would understand even the slightest bit of it? The book would be discarded entirely and never be heard of again. So divine inspiration would have to be "dumbed down" to the understanding level of the people of when it is written.

With regard to my position on 100% truth I condescend that there may be errors. On my side however, I don’t believe there were errors on the part of the visionary. It is more likely that I am incorrect in the interpretation. I believe the vision was impeccable. If we would utilize the Physics in order to determine a more accurate interpretation of the visionary. My placement of Dark mater, I am particularly curious is the Physics is in alignment
