Fake Science Wrecked Faith in a Literal Interpretation of Genesis!

For many Christians, Genesis has become a battleground. We’re told there’s a conflict between the Bible and modern science — and that faithful believers must reinterpret the opening chapters of Scripture to keep up. But what if we set modern scientific debates aside for a moment and simply asked: How was Genesis read before modern science ever entered the picture? In this video, I take you on a deep dive into primary sources — ancient Jewish interpreters, Josephus, early Church Fathers like Basil, Theophilus, Irenaeus, and even Augustine. We look at what they actually wrote — not what later secondary summaries claim they believed. We’ll explore: • The literary genre of Genesis 1–11 • The “inseparable chain” from Adam to Abraham • The luminary problem (why Day Four matters more than you think) • Early Jewish readings of creation • And the surprising truth about how the Church Fathers handled Genesis This is not an argument about modern science. It’s an argument about how the text was historically understood for nearly two thousand years prior to modern geology and Darwin. You may be surprised by what the sources actually say. This video starts slow and builds deliberately — it’s designed for those who are willing to dig deep. If you make it to the end, I’ve included a free resource with the primary quotations discussed.
