We seem to want to know the “how” and “when” of creation, and a lot of arguement and name calling goes on between christians who disagree over their answers. But Genesis is not so much interested in when, how long ago, etc. It rather addresses the questions of “who” and “why”. “In the beginning GOD” (who) and “Let us make man in our own image” (why). We come face to face with the eternal God who created ALL. And we soon see his everlasting, unconditional love for mankind.
