    Did you bother to read it? Oh well, I guess I'll have to quote the most direct sections, even though the entire thing is ex nihilo creation:

    Then there was neither death nor immortality
    nor was there then the torch of night and day.
    The One breathed windlessly and self-sustaining.
    There was that One then, and there was no other.

    At first there was only darkness wrapped in darkness.
    All this was only unillumined water.
    That One which came to be, enclosed in nothing,
    arose at last, born of the power of heat.
    Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban

    I am sorry its not even close and even admits it.clearly states not creation of time space matter, it is a guess of creation and the gods came after creation, matter already there, no origin of time or space.

    so here i see no beginning of time, or space. And not even the very beginning of matter. As there is water and heat [energy] that than i am sure evolves into all matter.


    it also says

    In whose keeping
    Was there then cosmic water


    But, after all, who knows, and who can say
    Whence it all came, and how creation happened?
    the gods themselves are later than creation,
    so who knows truly whence it has arisen?


    Whence all creation had its origin,
    he, whether he fashioned it or whether he did not,
    he, who surveys it all from highest heaven,
    he knows - or maybe even he does not know.

    “Its been said that when human beings stop believing in god they believe in nothing. The truth is much worse, they believe in anything.” Malcolm maggeridge

    The simple believes every word: but the prudent man looks well to his going. Proverbs -14.15
    The first to present his case seems right,till another comes forward and questions him -Proverbs 18.17

    In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
    Genesis 1.1

    Sorry?

    The Bible the only book of Prophecy?

    What about all the prophecies that didn't make it into the Bible?

    The Bible doesn't even MENTION the destruction of Troy!

    Look - I'm a Christian - but you're just talking out of the your fundament-alist.

    I see you are unable to interpret Indian poetry.

    I am not surprised.
