(you're gonna get me started)I like this. Have tried to filter for personal confirmation bias but still true. Beers someday. Raincheck issued
we can actually expand the idea of Revealed/progressive truth/revelation into a lot of areas. Planned Geology- if God knew we needed fossil fuels then he had to make the fossils, right? Why dinosaurs? The breed quickly, had a lot of mass. When the sufficient number and organic matter was grown.....throw an asteroid at it and start the age of mammals.
Controlled Evolution - developing life forms into something workable, make the creation leap to mankind (controlled in a specific, protected area like Eden) this is not contradicting Genesis as God created the animals "after their own kind" Adam simply named them later not created them.
Manipulated Genetics - separating the DNA strand of a particular man (Noah, and later Abraham) developing it through future generations (Hebrews) and then giving a law not to breed outside of the "faith" developed a specific DNA that even now most Jews can actually trace their specific tribe through DNA. Christians would say to progress to a "clean, untainted" DNA, as in Jesus. Catholics would say to develop an untainted Mitochondrial DNA vessel (Mary) for the birth of the first original/perfect/ fully expressive DNA since Adam. The second Adam.
The Bible isn't about scientific discovery, although it doesn't disallow it. It's about the Salvation Plan for mankind after the destruction of the Fall. From Adam's screw up to fixing it.
Logically, step by step.
