Animals can reason
Babies too can reason, one might argue, but I doubt you'd lose a reasoning competition to either.

budaatum:
Verse 5, along with the others bolded, explicitly imply the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul" on the eight day after he had rested.

After the Lord had then formed the man from dust did he "planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed".

But that's not even the conclusive evidence. The fact Adam was not given the same duties and pay as the Image shows they couldn't possible be the same creation unless you want to argue God decided to demote the Image to a naked ignorant slave, which he's unlikely to be able to do since they are themselves in God's image with the same powers and abilities and might resist being enslaved by their peer. Hence, slave Adam.
Are willfully being ignorant?

See your quote
Genesis 2 King James Version

1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.

2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Chapter 2 is a detailed description of how Adam was formed in Chapter 1.

3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,

5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.

6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
The Bible clearly stated Adam and eve was created in the 6th day and on the 7th day he rested. How can God be done with creation before the 7th day and then create again in the 8day?

I have showed you verses that specifically said God created Adam in his image.

Genesis 1:26-27 states that God created man in His own image: "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness... So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."

Again, chapter 2 is a detail description of chapter 1.

Who are the men God created in his image since you argue it is not Adam?

San Francisco Equity plan for grading

Convert all B grades into A
Convert all F grades into C
Eliminate homework and weekly test
Allows you to take an exam as many times until you pass

These are some of the crazy leftist policies you want to push nationally. Which parent will support any of these measures for their children

The bigotry of low expectations of the left towards minority children where they don't have to bring children up rather bring the standards down

The text says, "And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made".

Tell me. When you rest do you not start work again afterwards, or does rest mean retired and worked no more?

I do not expect you to see what I see, or you understand how your interpretation encourages ignorance, which is what those who refuse to eat fruits of knowledge are.

Look at Nigeria where we are afraid of knowledge. When we say "Let there be light", the response is not, "and there was light", it is Nepa! But look at China's development over the past 25 years. Not only do they eat fruits of knowledge, USA is screaming China is stealing their fruits of knowledge.

Put buda in the garden of Eden and the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is all buda will eat because buda does not want to be knowledge malnourished and a slave to anyone.

Kill me if you don't like it, but if your killing is anything like God's supposed killing of Adam, I'm guaranteed at least another 50 or so years at least, and would leave a decent number of descendants behind.

Most people also want a strong defense, good infrastructure and public services. And most people don’t want the deficit to explode. So how does the big beautiful bs reduce the deficit?

That's your lying spin.
Day 1: Light (Genesis 1:3-5)
Day 2: Sky and waters (Genesis 1:6-cool
Day 3: Land, seas, and vegetation (Genesis 1:9-13)
Day 4: Sun, moon, and stars (Genesis 1:14-19)
Day 5: Sea creatures and birds (Genesis 1:20-23)
Day 6: Land animals and man (male and female, including Adam and Eve) (Genesis 1:24-31)
Day 7: God rested and sanctified the seventh day (Genesis 2:1-3)

Genesis 2:1-3 states:
Thus the heavens and the earth were completed, and all their heavenly lights.
By the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had

This means by the seventh day there is nothing left to create. So he rested

When Adam ate the fruit, it means every descendants of Adam ate it as well.

Maybe you should do it before you give more money to Trump and his cronies but you won’t so the deficit will keep exploding and you will keep screaming but Biden and Obama looking for cheap excuses.

Elon now trying to distance himself from the damage he’s done. Laying off hundreds of thousands of american families’ breadwinners?

Cutting budgets that help elderly, sick and low income Americans. Opening up the defense/health database to Russian ip addresses. Stealing tax payer social security information for God knows what.

Now he doesn’t want to take responsibility for it? What was he thinking when he was running around the stage with a big chain saw like a spoiled frat boy?

IjeBos:
You write this as you celebrate one of if not the most corrupt Presidents in US history. A man, "who shows no regard for the future", who is looting the nation's wealth, killing the Education system, the trust other countries had in our bonds, destroying our courts and laws, killing tourism and destroying Scientific and Medical expertise which kept our country prosperous.
The cognitive dissonance in your posts doesn't seem to affect you much.
This has nothing to do with trump, does you TDS ever relent?


IjeBos:
Colonialism has left us generational issues that our(meaning Nigeria since you aren't American and have never been) country has to address, least of all Black people who have been generational trained to feel inferior to white people.
Colonialism moves us decades forward. Yes, must of the development they brought to Nigeria was to benefit their colonial authority, but we too benefited from it. The electricity, the railways roads etc. I would appreciate it if you could focus on my question regarding Nigeria's pre-colonial structures instead of mentioning Trump. Let the TDS slide for a second.

Like I said, colonialism while it has negatives, it also has positive.

through missionary they introduced Western education, particularly in southern Nigeria. This included schools that taught literacy, English, and technical skills, producing a class of educated Nigerians, such as Samuel Ajayi Crowther. the education enabled us to engage in administrative roles, trade, and communication with the global economy. Literacy rates improved, and by the 1950s, an educated elite emerged, contributing to the nationalist movement that led to independence in 1960. These are the positives. But wait, there is more.

They did not have to pick up sticks and stones, they just had to talk about what they want and how they want to move forward and that's it.

The African Banking Corporation is generally credited with establishing the first bank in Nigeria in 1892. It later merged to form the British Bank for West Africa, which eventually became First Bank of Nigeria Plc.

This is my main bank in Nigeria. Pharmacies, hospitals. I could go on. All these were non existent till we were colonized.

I am not the one living in the white man's country the cry nonstop about the white man. 70 black nation you would not live in any of them. Talk about inferiority complex.

Unlike you, I believe American culture is better than British culture, even though the Americans gained independence from the British. However, if you think your culture is superior and you are thriving, why not move to Nigeria?

How do you hate a country so much but you won't live anywhere else?

Take your people for example, I.. P.. O.. B.. They want their own nation and they are already subjugating their own people with their forced stay at home policy. What happened to Sudan will happen to the Ig bos. They will start to fight and kill themselves.

Always thought it was just majority black. You killed my hopes of a black nation doing extremely well.

Compare Haiti and Dominican Republic. They are on the same island , yet Dominican Republic has 6 times GDP per Capita. Haiti is 96% black and Dominican Republic has this Ethnic Composition:
Mixed: 71.72%
White: 18.70%
Black: 7.45%
East Asian: 0.33%
Other: 1.80%
Haitis flee their country in droves to their neighbour.
There are lots of violence and gang activities over there and you know the culprit.

They just have one small Abuja and the rest of the country is not so milk and honey.
