'Why Not Question' : Creationist vs Evolutionist - Part 2

Last week in Part 1, verses were covered about how much time it might actually have taken to create the Earth and how God didn't seem to create anything until Gensis 1:21. The blogger will leave the verses to the reader to read for themselves about the other four days.

Genesis 1: 20, 21

And God said, Let the waters (mayim - liquid) bring (bo - to cause to come in) forth abundantly the moving creature (nephesh - breathing creature) that hath life (nephesh - breathing creature), and fowl (oph - covered with feathers or covered with wings) what may fly above the Earth (erets - land) in the open (pene - face of) firmament (raqia - expanse, visible arch of the sky) of heaven (shamayim - heavens,heaved up things).

Here's where evolution and the Bible seem to agree - life came from the water. However, note one difference - there were already birds in the air. Could these have been the survivors of the great war fought in heaven? The fowl were either covered with feathers or wings to fly in the visible arch of heaven and possibly heaved up things. Left over dust from the asteroid?

Does the Bible actually record this event of 65 million years ago?

Now, note the first new creation.

And God created (bara - to prepare, form, fashion, create) great (gadol - elder, mighty, more, noble, bring up, exceed, promote) whales (tannim - a marine or land monster, dragon, sea serpent, or whale), and every living (chai - lively, alive) creature (nephese - breathing creature) that moveth, which the waters (mayim - liquid) brought forth abundantly, after their kind (min - species), and every winged (kanaph - as covering and protecting) fowl (oph - covered with feathers or wings) after his kind (min - species), and God saw it was good.

Now, God brings something new. He creates what the Bible translates as whales, yet the word can also mean dragon or sea serpent - or some type of land or marine monster.

So now, another question is raised - were dragons real once? Were sea serpents?

In verse 22 it says God blessed them and told them to fill the waters and the air.
So ends the fifth day.

In the next two verses God again speaks creatures into existence. Nothing new is created. Yet, one gets the sense the new creatures are mammals. Again, agreeing with the evolutionary pattern.
