    Stuck in the 1930's

    In S1E1 you went over the creation account of the Bible. You missed a great opportunity to bring Science and the creation account together. They both tell the same story. God did create the earth in 6 days and it has been 15 billion years since the Big Bang. No one, as yet, has been able to put into words how to teach Einstein's laws of relativity and the creation story at the same time, in harmony. Gerald L. Schroeder in his book "The Science of God" has come close but he is trapped in his physicist mind and no one, I fear, will ever be able to fully understand what he and Ramban, a 12th century Rabbi who wrote a commentary on Genesis, have discovered. That the Bible, if interpreted properly, using modern day Science and the language and Science that Moses had access to, are saying the same thing. Even Pope Pius XII in 1951 stated that there was no conflict in the Bible and Darwin or the Big Bang theory. This made headlines around the world. WAKE UP. I can only assume that either the writers or producers are more interested in conflict than the simple truth. Or maybe they are just plain ignorant of the subject they are speaking too. I could easily rewrite the script for the first episode with a team that could show how this conflict has been dead since George Lemaitre, a practicing catholic priest and world famous physicist first introduced his primeval atom theory. (Renamed the big bang theory) Please email me if you are interested in a rewrite of episode one and I can direct you to the books you should be reading to prepare for the script. One of them spent time on the NY Times best sellers list.
