Examining the Assumptions of Mosaic Creationism vis-a-vis the Assumptions of Evolutionary Creationism

I can see the entire account being revealed to him by God at Sinai,

As I showed you, one of the earliest interpretations of the Genesis creation (in the pre-Christian era), was that the creation account was revealed to Moses, at Sinai, in a vision. So you’re already halfway to my view.

@Mike_Gantt

What I don’t understand, relative to your position, is if Gen 1-11, or significant portions thereof, were written or collated in, for example, the Babylonian exile, why would you be able to notice as abrupt a change as you describe you do when you move from reading Gen 1-11 to Gen 12-50? In other words, how is it that the non-Mosaic authors were able to leave so little trace of their own hands on Gen 1-11?

As I have shown, non-Mosaic authors left an extremely large and very clear trace of their own hands on Genesis 1-11. That’s one of the reasons why there’s such an abrupt break between Genesis 1-11 and Genesis 12-50.

As I’ve pointed out, at some stage you need to actually address the evidence which is in the text of Genesis 1-11 itself. How does the MC model explain all that data?
