"I want a Corvette! |
|
I thought you would. |
|
I want a Pontiac too! |
|
Okay, we'll have the usual |
|
two-car garage." |
|
Compare the six days of the book of Genesis |
|
To the four billion years of geologic time |
|
On this scale, one day equals about 666 million years. |
|
All day Monday, until Tuesday noon, |
|
Creation was busy getting the Earth going. |
|
Life began on Tuesday noon, |
|
And the beautiful organic wholeness of it |
|
developed over the next four days. |
|
At 4 PM Saturday the big reptiles came; |
|
Five hours later, when the redwoods appeared, |
|
there were no more big reptiles. |
|
At three minutes before midnight, man appeared. |
|
At one-fourth of a second before midnight, Christ revolted. |
|
At one-fortieth of a second before midnight, the Industrial Revolution began. |
|
We are surrounded by people who think |
|
that what we have been doing |
|
for one-fortieth of a second |
|
can go on indefinitely. |
|
They are considered normal. |
|
But they are Stark. Raving. Mad. |
