Quote by Jimmy Carter

I don't think that the total creation took place in six days as we now measure time. If we can confirm, say, the Big Bang theory, that doesn't at all cause me to question my faith that God created the Big Bang.

I don't think that the total creation took place in six days

Summary

This quote suggests that the speaker does not interpret the biblical concept of six days of creation as literal 24-hour days. They question the traditional measurement of time in understanding creation and propose that scientific theories, like the Big Bang, do not contradict their belief in a divine creator. The speaker maintains faith in God's role in the creation process, even if it is not in line with literal interpretation.

True beauty express itself automatically. It's not only visible in the material, but around one's being, and within their aura. I once met a female, who was like that of a jeweled flower. Her celestial atmosphere and genuine conception could not separate from the true expression of the definition of beauty.
