God created everything in existence in six days. Except maybe the Light which he just gave permission to exist and it existed, and possibly the herbs and grasses which he thought up and then the earth did all the work sprouting them. I'd hate to jump to conclusions already!

God saw everything was good.

God made two lights to light up the sky, one to light up the day and a lesser one to light up the night. He also made the stars! Which all seems rather redundant since he'd already figured out light and apparently didn't need any source for it.

God created man and woman in his own image.

God told all creatures to be fruitful and multiply. Even ugly ones like Ostriches.

God also told man to subdue the Earth and have dominion over all other creatures.

God tells men and beasts to eat their vegetables.

God saw everything was VERY good.

God rested on the seventh day and decided everyone else should too, so he made it Holy.

STUDY QUESTIONS!
Question God and Religion!

How confusing is the phrase 'In the beginning' when we're supposedly dealing with an Infinite Being?

The Bible is pretty mysterious about God's Origins. Who is he? Where did he come from? What's his motivation for creating everything?

If God is infinite (and The Bible hasn't been too clear on this yet), then it took him infinity before he got around to creating everything. What was the hold up?

Why did it take God six days to create everything? Does it have something to do with E=mc²? Couldn't he have been more efficient?

Man creates because God created Man in his own image. Man is also created. So do you think God was also created? If so, by what? Was he a result of the Big Bang? Hee hee.

Does 'the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters' sound dirty to you too?

What did the Light and the Darkness look like before God separated them one from the other? Was it like an MC Escher print?

So God called the dark 'night' and the light 'day'. What good does that do him when he has no cosmic model of the galaxy to determine actual day and night? Does he just stand in the area he separated the light while he creates stuff and then walks over to where he stuck the darkness for his night's sleep and then, after hitting the snooze button a few times, heads back into the light area to begin the new day?

What happened to the water above Heaven? The water below the firmament became Earth. Where did the water above the firmament go? Did it become the other planets and galaxies? Did it become a bunch of other Earths? Perhaps God has some Chosen Aliens? Is this proof of alien beings (Proof meaning facts from The Bible in this context and not the correct way Proof would normally be used)? Or maybe it just became rain?

How does God measure one day before he creates the sun? God doesn't create the sun until the third day and yet after creating the heaven and the earth, morning and evening are mentioned.

What happened to the lesser light God created to light up the night? The Bible couldn't mean the moon since that's not a light; it's just a big rock!

Why does God only mention Whales specifically of all animals? Are they his favorites? I'd say he mentioned Cattle too but I'm pretty sure he meant sheep and cows and goats and chickens. Maybe not chickens. Although chickens don't live in the firmament, so probably chickens too.

Are people who eat meat going against God as he seems to directly point out the grasses and herbs and fruits as the food for men and beasts? This would seem pretty important since the whole of creation only takes one and a quarter pages and about twelve and a half cents of that is the vegetable diet part! Maybe it's explained more after Adam and Eve really screw the pooch (not literally! I don't think).

Why is the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie called 'The Sixth Day'?

How could God create Man and Woman both in his own image? I've seen men and women naked and one of them makes my stomach feel funny and the other makes my stomach feel queasy.

FAITH vs SCIENCE
The Creation Myth

 HISTORICAL FACTS

Christians regard Sunday as the Sabbath and Jewish people regard Saturday as the Sabbath. The Bible specifically states God rested one day and not the whole weekend. This means that one group is breaking the Sabbath and has been forever. Hell sure is going to be crowded!

People who smoke 'grass' and 'herbs' think everything is good or very good or groovy.

Whalers should probably rethink their slaughter of the poor whales since God created whales first of everything and even named them specifically. I can draw only one conclusion from this: God loves Whales! Oh, wait! Two conclusions: God hates Whalers!

The moon doesn't make its own light! It reflects the light from somewhere else, possibly Las Vegas. If it's the 'lesser light' God created, then somebody made a big mistake!

The Bible is going to get a lot of science wrong because Fact Checkers in the time The Bible was written didn't have the internet. Of course, if The Bible were written today, a lot of the science would still be wrong since the internet has Wikipedia.
