Bible Note: Emmaus - Your reasoning regarding God's time-frame of creation makes an enormous amount of sense to me, and I believe it is in tune with biblical revelation. ..... But what I await with eager anticipation is next week's installment in which you promise to wrestle with the question, "How many angels (also called 'angles' on this forum) can dance on the head of a pin?" ..... Please let me know the day you plan to post it so we can coordinate our scholarly efforts and make a really big splash, because I am working on a definitive answer to the question, "Who was Cain's wife?" Do you think the forum is ready for this? --Hank |
