Most people think either life spontaneously generated from non living things then evolved or was supernaturally created out of nothing but there is a third option
If the Universe is Eternal and life always existed then life never had to come from non living things
Giordano Bruno
" He also insisted that the universe is infinite and could have no center."
"charges made against Bruno by the Roman Inquisition were:"
"claiming the existence of a plurality of worlds and their eternity"
"Cause of death
Execution by burning at the stake"
@LysanderMooner
Genesis 1
Day 1 light
1 + 3 = 4
Day 4 stars that emit light
Day 2 water
2 + 3 = 5
Day 5 things that live in the water
Day 3 Land
3 + 3 = 6
Day 6 things that live on land
Day 6 man's sin and the execution of Jesus on Friday
Day 7 the Sabbath
Jesus rests buried underground on Saturday
Day 8 Sunday this is like Day 1 restrarting the weekly cycle with Jesus Ressurection on Sunday the day of the creation of light
Can be structures of things instead of order of events
Hebrew numbers are not always numbers because they sometimes use letters to represent numbers instead of arabic number symbols where the distinction between letters and numbers are clear
The so called days in Genesis might be a list of categories of kinds of things God created instead of a timeline in numeric order
If this is so
God could have created a universe that is eternal both forward and backwards in time and that is not a finite amount of time old
Yeah, jews suck
