Another good one...
Which came first? People or animals?
Genesis 1: Animals came first. (7 day creation)
Genesis 2: Man came first, then animals, then when God figured out animals weren't good companions, he created Eve. (not 7 day creation)
The reason for this is Genesis 1 is the Elohist creation myth and Genesis 2 is the Yahwist creation myth.
But try telling that to evangelicals.
On Day 1 God created light
On Day 2 God created earth
On Day 4 God created the sun
Okay. On day 1 what was the source of light? It wasn't the sun.
On Day 4 the sun was created, but how was there 3 days before that? You can't have a day without a day/night cycle the sun is responsible for.
Even if it was the clockmaker hypothesis, it doesn't make sense. Stars were formed before planets were.
And it was on day 4 the other stars and planets were formed.
