Very well written and easily readable explanation for how our starting point world view impacts our interpretation of the opening books of the Bible, especially Genesis. If God created all that is, and then set natural laws (by which we examine and predict phenomena) in motion, our explanation of origins will reflect a faith-based intelligent design that propagates intelligence in those made in His image. If god is a concept invented by fools to control the masses, our explanation of origins will reflect the faith-based evolution (by the addition of unknown years) from simple to complex, from foolishness to wisdom. The problem with the former is that we must admit we are not in control and cannot make the rules OR the building blocks of life (and, as science proves, we cannot do either, but only observe/discover what already IS). The problem with the latter is there may be no way to know whether were building atop ideas formed from wisdom or opinionated fools. With both, we find examples of foolish abuses that do not invalidate what is true, but definitely make SEEING the truth that much more difficult.
