Clearly you've never played telephone.

I'm just amazed that the ancient israelis got it as close as they did to our modern understanding of the process of the formation of the universe through only oral tradition and not from any hard sources of science.

Personally I'm in the camp that says trust the science and realize that ancient Israeli tribals weren't the best at keeping 100% accurate records.

I'm also partial to the simulation theory variant where we are the sims on Gods PC.

Isn't it weird how God manifests himself in different ways depending where your physical location on earth is. It's almost like if each culture puts its own spin on religion because there is no continuity between a people that existed thousands of years ago and the people of today.

Just a little fun fact about the abrahamic religions.

It's explicitly stated that there are other gods. It's just that the abrahamic one does not like them and wants to be the god of everything.

Got it close? It's wrong in almost every way possible. Earth before Sun. Plants before the sun. No insect pollinators until after the sun and birds before land animals.

It's completely random.

It blows my mind that there are atheists who read the Bible literally.

It's fine if you don't read the Bible literally. As long as you also accept that Jesus didn't actually die and resurrect. You didn't read it literally, did you?
