In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Believe it or not. You either must believe the creation account as told in Genesis, or you must believe that the Bible is untrustworthy. But before you leap to the conclusion that the Bible must be untrustworthy, consider the choice. A book, written by the hands of dozens of authors, from all different walks of life, in several different languages, over a span of more than a thousand years, which is suprisingly cohesive in story, miraculously unchanged over a span of more than 2000 years (no other book is even close), proven perfectly accurate in all tests and attempts to discredit it. This against the word of men and women who change their theory nearly every week as they try and fit in some fact or discovery that just doesn't fit. The choice really is, faith in God or faith in men.
