I enjoy researching things. If it is too complicated for you, just pay attention to the main message of the Bible.
It was by research, by the way, that I discovered 'salt' was a euphamism for 'wisdom' in their culture. We do much the same in so many ways: The sun rises and sets (but it doesn't), "do you see?" meaning "do you understand?" -- languages are full of so many of these things. I enjoy looking into them. That's my thing. It doesn't have to be yours.
But when I do look at the layers of the atmosphere, and how comparably 'skinny' they are, the word choice of raqia makes perfect sense to me.
But that's me....
At least I am not force-feeding it to the general populace as scientific truth!
I would rather make it an invitation to think for yourself -- something forbidden by evolutionists.
