because to God time isn't of any essence, to him 1000 yrs of ours is like a day.

Because God has something most of us lack, patience!

I suggest to you not to ask questions in that direction...cos none of it makes sense when you think about it. Not the snake, not Noah's ark, simply nothing...

The Bible NEVER says that the earth was created in 6 days. (It says 'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth'). 'the beginning' could encompass billions of years. After making that statement the bible describes six creative 'days', (hebrew yohm), in which god readied the earth for and progressively introduced living things. 'Yohm' doesn't necessarily refer to a literal 24 hr day. It can also indicate an era, a period of time of indefinite length. "Why COULDN'T he populate it faster?" ??? The fact that he DIDN'T doesn't mean that he COULDN'T. Angels were created, each as an individual. One at a time. But after designing DNA and the human reproductive system,...? Each human child would be an individual, with traits determined by the combination of their parents dna. How cool is that?

Whenever possible God is "hands off". Why intervene when there is no necessity?

We messed it up this bad from just them 2 imagine if there had been more!
