Freud taught us that it wasn't God that imposed judgment on us and made us feel guilty when we stepped out of line. Instead, it was the superego - that idealized concept of what a good person is supposed to be and do - given to us by our parents, that condemned us for what had been hitherto regarded as ungodly behavior. ↗

Like most Christians, I believe the Genesis account of creation is a description of six different stages of creation, each of which may have taken eons of time. ↗
