Changes

The previous section didn't have any sources so I sourced what I could, removed some material I found questionable, and tried to provide a fuller view of both sides of the debate surrounding Genesis 1. Full disclosure, I support the Young Earth side, and while I tried to do the Day Age theory justice, had trouble finding sources for it. If anyone who supports the theory would like to add to the section to better illustrate the beliefs and arguments of those who support the Day Age theory I'd love to have your participation in the interest of making sure both sides are well-represented. --Joshua Zambrano 18:11, 11 March 2011 (UTC)--Joshua Zambrano 18:11, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Content

Well, it originally started when I decided a one-sentence reference to the book's actual content and most of the article written about interpretive disputes wouldn't cut it, so I tried putting a section together more seriously addressing the content. I just couldn't summarize it as well as I'd originally intended. There is way too much there. I am actually trying to be concise here, but every chapter is so jam-packed full of great stuff... --Joshua Zambrano 00:46, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
