In the beginning of the human race there was no genetic load which would cause undesirable traits such as appear in offspring of marriages between relatives today.
Language expresses people's thinking and it was by a Word that God created the world and preserves it.
This solution may not appeal to our human pride, but the problem is that our human pride in itself is sinful.
Sex is not sinful, but sin has perverted it.
In Christ the original image of God is restored, by faith in this world and by sight in the world to come.
It seems we will continue to have problems with this classification and it may be because it comes under the heading of creation rather than preservation.
Scripture suggests that the elements in space were created for the benefit of earth, while evolution suggests that earth is an insignificant speck in vast space.
If leaders in the space program had at its beginning in the 1940s, pointed out the benefits to people on earth rather than emphasizing the search for proof of evolution in space, the program would have saved $100 billion in tax money and achieved greater results.
There are also scientific problems with the concept that each of the creation days was a long period of time.

The Moon and Mars were the two most likely candidates for life in the solar system; what exists beyond our solar system is mere guesswork.
Essential to the theory of evolution is the premise that everything has come into being by itself.
Science is defined in various ways, but today it is generally restricted to something which is experimental, which is repeatable, which can be predicted, and which is falsifiable.
Accordingly, one race is neither superior nor inferior to another.
Essentially this promise before curse, this superiority of God's love in Christ, must come from the Bible.
Therefore, sins of sex are punished in this life to a greater degree than some other sins.
Being made in the image of God, man was the crown of creation.
Following the creation concept that creation processes differed from preservation processes, it is suggested that God endowed each created kind, at the time of its creation, with potential for vast variety.
Angels possess greater powers than do human beings.
We agree that man was not created to survive in space.
God has stated in clear and concise language how He created the universe and we ought not to doubt His Word.
