Religion
God is not the Creator, claims academic --- The title may make it sound like the article is some typical atheist drivel, but it actually isn't. It's about an Old Testament scholar who reanalyzed the original Hebrew text from Genesis and determined that the book (in her opinion) is actually the beginning of a narration, not the beginning of time. According to her analysis, she says God created humans and animals, but not the Earth itself. Personally, I'm skeptical of her analysis, but I thought it was interesting enough that I would post the article. The Ancient Aliens crowd would probably love it though.
