RE: Were the seven days of creation in Genesis seven twenty four hour periods? - The implications.

in #religion7 years ago (edited)

Loved this post, I've pondered the same thing a lot my self as I seem to fluctuate on the fence somewhere. I don't believe the literal bible's version of creation, however as you have pointed out there seem to be many hidden metaphors. I think religious scripts are so multi layered, and depending on your level of understanding or consciousness, varying layers of information will pop out at you.

On the flip side there are also far too many gaps in the evolution theory, and plenty of scientists and anthropologists speak volumes about this, too much for a comment box to discuss.

Also, there is an exact precision in EVERYTHING, which is far too perfect to be an accident. The Fibonacci sequence/the golden ratio is present everywhere. The distance between our wrist and knuckle is the golden ratio, the distance between our eyes is the golden ratio, the Fibonacci sequence is seen in how a tree branch forms or splits, the head of a flower displays Fibonacci sequence's. Even the pyramids are built around the golden ratio. What did they know that we don't? And why Is one of the most significant mathematical/geometrical discoveries absent from mainstream education?

Me personally I can't think anything other than there is an intelligent deliberate creator, and that evolution and natural selection is a by product of that creation.

Sort:  

extremely well said.

I think religious scripts are so multi layered, and depending on your level of understanding or consciousness, varying layers of information will pop out at you.

and I agree that the scientific endeavor is a moving target but the general direction can be relied on even when the details seem a little fuzzy.

The golden ratio, fractals, chaos and complexity theory are some of my favorite frontiers.

Think a little on this...
evolution is non-teleological but is manipulated by the environment...
Manipulate the environment and you direct the course of evolution.

@gavvet I wish stemmit gave notifications, I was not expecting a reply :/. I am quite obsessed with all of this kind of thing, and this is exactly the reason I joined steemit, I figured I would find others here.

Have you heard of Dr Bruce Lipton? I would imagine you have as it's difficult not to be aware of him if your aware of everything above. I've read the Biology of belief about 3 times and I need to read it again, every time I do I realise something new. Epigenetics is indicating that DNA behaviour is indeed governed by the environment, gene expression depends on what conditions are present. He grew several different types of tissues from stem cells, only altering the environmental conditions each was growing in, and totally different tissues formed in each petri dish. So the environment was governing which genetic codes were expressed. (this Is the most basic thing to say about that book, I encourage everyone to read it)

This lends to concept of thoughts influencing physical health, and I've also pondered if this is what some people refer to as the Akashic records? Some kind of data base of instruction codes, I don't know. The mind boggles. Morphic resonance as described and illustrated by Rupert Sheldrake also points to some sort of 'information centre' we are all connected to and influenced by but have no idea of it. I think psychedelics in some instances, for the right people with the right level of consciousness open doors into whatever this place is. Again a topic to be discussed on it's own.

Following your trail, our environment is being manipulated in multiple ways. Negatively polarised. But for what purpose. Possibly altering expression of certain genes that maybe activate a certain part of our brain which maybe can connect to something far greater than us..................down the rabbit hole we go........

P.s not encouraging the use of drugs before anyone takes that the wrong way.

My question would be has anything ever evolved into a different species? Not simply environmental effects. For instance people are darker in Africa and produce melon due to conditions their but they will always be human right? How can a bird ever become a lion because it's cold? This is the biggest flaw in evolution. God created lions and they have been lions since the beginning of time.
