My theory of Geocreationism is that the Days of creation can be mapped to geologic eras, making it similar to (or yet another flavor of) Day Age Theory.  In that vein, Day 1 occurred about 3.9 Ga, around the time of the last large meteor strike against the early earth.  Day 2 was some time between 3.9 Ga and 3.5 Ga, when the oceans had finally reformed from their last meteoric vaporizing 3.9 Ga.  Day 3, the creation of land and plants, occurred approximately 2.4 Ga, when plate tectonics began.  Day 4 was about 1.9 Ga, when Oxygen levels reached high enough levels for the sun, moon, and starts to be visible in the firmament.  This means that Day 3 could …

I have to admit that when I started this blog, I knew what the core concepts would be:

Science is accurate.
Scripture is accurate.
Young Earth Creationism is correct that Genesis 1 is literal and historical.
Old Earth Creationism is correct that the earth is old.
Gap Theorists are correct that there is a gap in the creation story (it’s Day 4 though, not Genesis 1:1)
Day-age Theorists are correct that each day maps to an age.
Theistic Evolutionists are correct that God caused mutations and allowed Natural Selection to occur.

There are other principles as well that have been added and/or refined over the past several months.  However, one thing that has been slow in coming has been a solid theory for how Evolution and Creation work …

Day 3 of Creation saw the beginning of plate tectonics, with the God stated intention of creating dry land, and seeded land plants.  Based on the Geological and Theological evidence, it would seem that God jumpstarted the land to naturally produce the earth’s plant life over the following 2 billion years.  But, why only mention seeded plants?

God created several different kinds of plant life.  Botanists divide them up based on their means of reproduction.  Generally, plants reproduce via spores or seeds.  Spores require the sperm of one plant to find the egg of another in order to reproduce.  Seeds do not require this, containing all of the reproductive material required in just the seed.  In Genesis 1:11, God spoke …
