No. For those of you who believe it was, for you Christians, let me tell you, that you do not understand the Jewish people. We Jews understand that it did not take place in seven days, and that's because we know what we're good at, and what we're really good at is bullshit. This is a wonderful story that was told to the people in the desert in order to distract them from the fact that they did not have air conditioning. I would love to have the FAITH to believe that it took place in seven days, but ...I have thoughts. And that can really fuck up the faith thing, just ask any Catholic priest. "And then there are fossils. Whenever anybody tries to tell me that they believe it took place in seven days I reach for a fossil and go fossil. And if they keep talking I throw it just over their head. There are people who believe that dinosaurs and men lived together. That they roamed the earth at the same time. There are museums that children go to in which they build dioramas to show them this, and what this is, purely and simply, is a clinical psychotic reaction. They are crazy. They are stone cold fuck nuts. I can't be kind about this, because these people are watching The Flinstones as if it were a documentary. Now, there is a big difference between the old testament and the new testament and that is the new testament god is really kind of a great guy, he is, especially when you compare him to the old testament god who is a prick. I don't know what happened to god over time and how he matured and if he went to an anger management class, or maybe just the birth of a son, calmed him down but before he had the kid, holly fuck he was out of control. The reason that the old testament god, is a prick, was because the old testament was designed as a book to get the Jew's to straighten up and fucking fly right cause they were out of control they were ten hairs away from being Baboons.
