Theland, //''Stretch,'' suggests an increase in size. Yes?//
Not necessarily. Stand on the edge of the Sahara and the desert stretches out before you. That doesn’t mean it’s increasing in size. It just means it’s vast and you can’t see where it finishes - just like the sky.
//Gods' work is key, He won't ta!e a day off, or leave it to contractors :-}//
You claim to know so much about what God’s doing one could be forgiven for thinking you have a hotline - but we know you haven’t - and more to the point you know you haven't.

Science (proper science such as physics, chemistry, biology and their related disciplines) may not be perfect (and I wouldn't claim it is) but it gives us the best understanding of how the physical world works.
I would argue that it is better to try to understand how the world actually works rather than put faith in (an) unknowable being(s) and just "believe". Too many men (generally) of god have made lamentable claims in support of their beliefs. Wasn't the world created 4004BC? So what about the fossil record?
drmorgans - Take the beginning of the universe.
The scientists haven't a clue, and can't even agree amongst themselves.
Dawkins, Hawking, Penrose, Krause, Dennet, Jim Al-Khalili, and Sean Carroll all have differing theories and no proofs to contradict, ''In the beginning, God created ............. ''

Theland, scientists don't 'have' to provide proof to contradict the Bible - they start from a more rational, informed point. They don't all have to agree either. I know you'd probably be disappointed if someone came along and said 'This.... is how the world started', but you must know yourself how difficult it is to provide proof, evidence - you've never managed it yet, despite the earnest pleas from ABers.
Theland, you have said that repeatedly and proved it not once, not one single time. You will revert to your circular argument, 'it's in the Bible and clever scientists haven't come up with anything else.' People have spent a lot of time and effort trying to explain 'proof' to you, you've never yet grasped the concept.
''In the beginning there was nothing, and by the powers and laws of nothing, nothing happened, until a child shouted that the Emperor had no clothes.
But he was quickly silenced by the Brotherhood Of Man, who did not believe in Santa, Unicorns, Fairies and other imaginings, but collectively believed in the Greatest Of Impossibilities, the Power Of Nothing.
Yes Mankind believes in Nothing, and has nothing as evidence to back it up.''

Seriously, Theland - you really think you understand proof and logic? I'm afraid your many, many claims and assertions, backed up by so very little (purporting to be so much) show the exact opposite. I don't know what was the cause of the beginning of the world, and unlike you I have never claimed to do so. Until you stop citing 'the Bible says it all' and 'God simply is' as your evidence, you will convince no-one.
