The Untold Day

The Bible says God created the universe in six days and rested on the seventh. This is one proof that not everything the Bible says can be true. All sites of magnificent natural beauty in the world--from Yosemite on--must have taken an eighth, ninth, even a tenth day. You can't, in just six days, do everything else (including the mosquito and the black widow) and also get in scenic wonders complete with tourist overlooks. And the architectural plans for the Taj Mahal? That's at least a day at the drafting desk right there. This is God at play, when he forgets about tormenting us with hurricanes, brush fires, earthquakes, rickets, pebbles in our sandals, root canals, and exceedingly hot peppers.
