The END of creationism, Dutch professor says

Prof. dr. Ellen van Wolde from the Radboud university says that god didn't create the heaven and the earth as is writen in genisis.
After studying the original hebrew text again, she says that there are errors in the translation from the original text into the text as we now know it.

She says that what originaly was intended is that god devided the heaven and earth from the sea. The error occurred when the hebrew word 'bara' was falsely translated into 'create' where it should have been 'devide'

Her theory is that there was already a earth, but completely coverred with water where creatures lived in. God then devided the land and the heaven from the sea.

Well, obviously creationism was debunked 150 years ago. But I'm interested in this translation error. Any links?

And let the games begin...

That reminds me of the story about the Catholic priest that died and went to Heaven. St. Peter said he could do anything he wanted, so he asked to see the original Bible, as he wanted to study the Word of God as it was actually written.

A couple days later, there emerged a scream from his room, and then he started yelling, "They left out an R! They left out an R!"

"It's celebRate!"

I've always heard and been taught both versions...'created' and 'divided". Makes no difference to me. Now we just need the translation for how he created ape out of the earth instead of man out of earth.

No if anything it alters the origin of the universe but says nothing at all about the origin of the species.

Big Bang has little to do with evolution.
The creation of the Earth has little to do with the creation of life.

What makes you think some of them don't?

If Darwin is correct...
Id like 2 see 1 of his believers try and take
an ape on a plain (first class American air lines) from cost 2 cost...
If they don't let u...just tell them it's Ur ancestor...Se how far that would take U.

Origins can never be proved....

I am, no holds barred, a Creationist. You can extract whatever assumptions you want about how that creation played out, but In the beginning....Was God.

As somebody else said, this is not a new teaching...My Bible even says "divided".

sigh... all the time, money, energy, and lives wasted over meaningless debate on this mythology. Truly sad.

Folks should get into astrology instead.

Firstly, there is no "if".

Secondly I will never understand why and how people who take such a strong view on evolution do so without even bothering to learn it.

Thirdly, you truly are an odd little fellow. May I ask how old you are?

Apes aren't being claimed as the starting point. The animals in your family tree rank from primitive single cell organisms through to rodents, through to sea creatures and beyond.
