Scientific errors in the Bible: Creation of the universe

First we deal with Astronomy. The Bible speaks about the creation of the universe. In the beginning, 1st Book, Book of Genesis, 1st Ch., it is mentioned - It says... 'Almighty God created the Heavens and the Earth, in six days and talks about a evening and a morning, referring to a 24 - hour day. Today scientists tell us, that the universe cannot be created in a 24 hour period of six days. Qur'an too speaks about six 'ayyams'. The Arabic word singular is 'yaum' plural is 'ayyam'. It can either mean a day of 24 hours, or it is a very long period, an 'yaum', an epoch. Scientists say we have no objection in agreeing that the universe - it could have been created in 6 very long periods.

that is your own opinion! For you scientific muslim: ISAIAH 55: 8-9 ;GOD says, "FOR MY THOUGHTS ARE NOT YOUR THOUGHTS, NOR ARE YOUR MY WAYS" DECLARES THE LORD. FOR AS THE HEAVENS ARE HIGHER THAN YOUR WAYS AND MY THOUGHTS THAN YOUR THOUGTHS.

god can create the universe in 6 days, 6 hours, 6 seconds, whatever he decides. Just because a bunch of scientists claim that it can't be done, doesn't make it so. I would venture to guess that many of those scientists will not acknowledge the possibilities of supernatural methods of creation.

A muslim apologist accusing the Bible of being scientifically inaccurate? That's odd, if he would simply open up his own Koran, he would find that in one verse it states the earth was created in six days and in another verse it says it took eight days. So which is it?

this guy is trying to fit science of evolution with his faith. unfortunately for him he doesn't realize that science is always changing thus people of faith are changing there beliefs with it. the thought of the universe being created in periods is a relatively new one. I don't believe that god gave another revelation after the new testament, however he is wrong here. science is always changing and if your basing your belief with science then you need biblical grounding.

the guy in this vid is a complete moron, Why is it that religious people ONLY listen to other religious morons, and not people who are actually more intelligent than they are and can teach them??

In the Strong's #3117 yowm (yome);

Can mean: an age, Time, continually (-ance), (for) ever (-lasting, -more), or perpetually.

2 Peter 3:8 says that one day with Jehovah is like a thousand years to us. it should also be noted that this is referring to Time ( as in The Earth Started Spinning) not for Man, Since Man Was Created on This Sixth Day. PBUT

why would it take an all powerful being 6 days to create the earth? He wasnt powerful enough to just poof it all instantly? and why did he need to rest afterwards?

it doesnt add up because its all made up.

prove me wrong.

[mafiakood]

the debate is actually about the word DAYS! days is based upon a 24 hour rotation of the earth around the sun. how could he make it in 6 days if he had no created the earth yet ?

[Atheeizm]

lol I love this guy .. the fastest talking twit ever.

He really believe he has it all stitched up.

Love it.

and the audience.. lol well lets not start on them.

[Yonah613]

Well you are entitled to think and believe wrong and misleading information.

G-d did create the world as He alone could do.

If your brain is too small to believe that our G-d could do it on a 24 hour day then by all means keep being an idiot.
