Those interpretations of scripture, about the fall of Lucifer, tho very popular and loved, are ludicrous.

But they served your rundown of the gap -> another wild Pember interpretation, that's also ludicrous.
Did not know that about the name "Lucifer." Don't know anything about the comics you referenced (though comics are sure popular in our culture, aren't they!?). Well, whatever name he's given, we know who it is.

As mentioned before, Pember is just one author of the Gap Theory, but he was the one we were introduced to in the LC. I've read a few pretty good ones by more recent authors, who, as said before, take a little different tact than Pember did. It's just a theory, like various others. As said, I don't hold to these things nearly as closely as I once did, for a few reasons. But I haven't found any of the theories more plausible to me than this, and very rarely does it ever get brought up where I fellowship.

So, what creation theory do you not find ludicrous?
