1. I started at the beginning, with the Genesis of the word Genesis.
2. You can tell that Moses compiled Genesis from a number of sources because he repeatedly started from the beginning, and retold the first 7 days in the next telling as taking place in one day, because the word day is a metaphor.
3. In reality, the Genesis of a planet requires billions of years rather than a week of literal days, as in myth, or protomatter, as in Star Trek III.
4. Whether Genesis was better with Peter or with Phil is still hotly debated. (I prefer Phil, but that's just my personal taste.)

Get the Multi-Level Marketingmug. The 1992-93 El Niño Winter in Susanville, California, when every storm all winter dumped four feet of snow, and the electricity would shut off for four days at a time, and only come back on just in time for the next storm to hit.
Pictures of cans and bottles of beer stuffed into snow banks are falsely attributed to Canada, but the redneck waste of refrigeration ingenuity on beer rather than on groceries betrays the true origin of the picture as being the Susanville Hell Niño of 1992-93.
