I always wondered why I held back from providing Ron Paul with any sort of news space on this blog… it was something deep in my gut. Now I know why. In the 21st century, with an overwhelming mountain of evidence from science, anthropology, human genetics, history, geology, the earth sciences, astronomy, and the like, there is really no room in the realm of politics for a President who still believes the world was created in 6 days. I am a Christian and have been all my life, but I knew when I was still a child that the erroneous fundamentalist Christian theology of a world which was literally created in “6 days of 24 hours each” was preposterous. [ I was eight years old at that time. They had not tested my IQ yet but I was reading 5th and 6th grade history in the second grade. ]  My pastor could not or would not reply to my questions about this passage in Genesis, and so my journey for deeper truth began then and there. I already knew  that my gut instinct was right – and that the ‘creation of the earth in 6 days” story which my pastor insisted I accept, was not to be taken as a literal statement, but as an allegorical one instead.

One must understand the concept of “allegorical and poetic references” in order to make an effort at understanding the text of the Holy Bible. Mike Huccabee had some intelligent things to say about this back in 2007:

So in looking at Genesis, a “day” to our Creator may be not only as “a thousand years” – it may also be as a literal eon of time, spanning millions or even billions of years as we reckon time on earth. Our reckoning of time out here on the southeast fringes of the Milky Way galaxy may be completely different from how the passage of time is reckoned at other locations in God‘s vast universe.

I accept  with no problem the current scientific dating of our earth as being approximately 4.5 billion years old, and I have studied the account of the progressive epochs of earth’s development in The Urantia Book and find no conflict at all with my belief in a loving and all encompassing Creator whom I call the Heavenly Father. The “creation” of this world took place over long eons of time and the fossil and geology record clearly demonstrate this. How long will the stupidity of so called modern men keep this world lagging a half million years behind the spiritual progress of it’s sister spheres who are inhabited?

The present domain of our Creator Son [ who was known on this world as the Lord Jesus Christ ] presently includes more than 3 million inhabited planets. On not one of them do the sentient creatures harbor the childish belief that their own worlds were created in several days. Planet earth is sitting at the bottom of the class. Our world bears the dismal distinction of being one of the most intellectually and spiritually backward and retrograde worlds in the local creation. If this status does not change within the next one thousand years, it might be plowed under. It’s time for mortal men and women to “get with the program” and understand that the cultivation of life on an inhabited world is a high art of Divine antiquity, taking billions of years to complete and perfect. That’s one of the many hundreds of reasons why life is sacred and murder is an abomination to God.

I’m heart-broken to learn that Ron Paul questions the fundamental tenets of science and geology. I can’t support his candidacy and he won’t ever make it to the White House while harboring such backward and erroneous beliefs which are so false. Fundamentalism in all forms is destroying the spiritual and intellectual progress of this world. I hated that I even had to type this post. This question should have been settled one hundred years ago. The fact that it is still being debated at this late date in human history is an indication of how mythology rules over reason and sanity on planet earth. What a sad day for me to have to post this.
