Think About It!

About the Book

Many of those who would publish books, on this and that, insist that authors supply credentials to

substantiate what they have written. That is not an unreasonable request, however not all writing demands such.

THINK ... must one supply credentials when one is writing about the meanderings of one's mind?

THINK ... must one supply credentials when one is writing about one's life philosophy?

THINK ... must one supply credentials when one writes about the act of writing?

THINK ... must one supply credentials about one's own thought process?

THINK ...  must one supply credentials ...

Well, I'm sure you get the idea. Credentials do not always come into play or need be supplied simply because pen has been applied to paper, or fingers to a keyboard and the output is to challenge the reader.

Now if reference is being made on how to build a bridge or perform brain surgery, that is something else. Certain arbitrary rules just don't hold water.

Reading between the lines of the above what does one deduce? Missing credentials? How true!

But I'm not building a bridge nor am I about to perform brain surgery, I'm merely delving into mind and spilling its contents. The diverse thoughts, the musings, whatever ... putting them down on paper in order for the reader to examine, to reflect, to entertain himself and for the reader to try a like process.

Credentials? I have a mind, it produces my thoughts and I do not need credentials to support this fact!

So what has mind produced for the book titled,

THINK ABOUT IT!

Glad you asked ...  

An excerpt from the book, loosely presented ...  The scientific world has attempted to answer the question about the age of man. Key word ...

attempted.

So, how old is man?

The range in years is so diverse that it brings into question the logic being used to arrive at an answer. We've all read the spread ...

5,000 - 10,000 - 50,000 - 100,000, etc. The sands of time do not shift back and forth as readily as do the answers we are given.

Here we can open up that proverbial can of worms and inititate a hot debate ... We can pit science against the Bible, we can pit the Bible against those who wrote it.

Let's begin with Adam ... Was he really the first man? In all of eternity? Was Eve the first woman? To answer this question a lot of taboos must be stirred up, must be discounted, must be faced.

When one reads the Bible and begins

analytical thought with the Genesis in mind, one stirs up more than thought waves. A careful reading leads one to believe there were other beings around when Adam and Eve made their appearance. The Diety was not alone in the eternality of all. There were beings, there was life, there was energy. The

nomenclature may not have been man, or even  

(hu)man, but what was there had validity.

Returning to Genesis we find that God created heaven and earth. The earth, not the universe, not space, not all the other planets, but earth and its immediate surrounds.  The void was not such that it took all there was into consideration, the void was where God decided to place the planet earth and its particular surrounds. There are many such voids in the Universal make-up even today. It took God five days and on the sixth day he created Adam and Eve. If the earth itself is judged to be around 4.8 billion of years old, man must be be the same age minus five days. Why did God take six days? After all He could have made all happen with just a thought.

...

The search for evidentiary fossils goes on. We are finding a bone here, a bone there, but nothing  in huge numbers.

We cannot discount any of the earth's mysteries when we seek to age man. The various structures that still exist refuse to give up their secrets. Which brings up the question, "Who built them, really? Were the builders earthmen or did they come from somewhere out in space as an expeditionary force?  Did they come to
