Why did God separate the waters from the waters?
God does not exist drawing a conclusion that that is a myth!
What do science and creation stories have in common?
They both seek to explain how we got here.
According to the theory of Evolution, life developed by random processes, especially mutations.
The narrative of Divine Creation, which is contained in Genesis ch.1 and 2, states that God created the universe. This teaches us that God exists, that our lives and the world are not random, and that the created things may be assumed to contain vast wisdom in their beautiful and purposeful design. (In recent decades, this wisdom has indeed been partially revealed, through increasingly powerful microscopes.)Evolution through random mutations, on the other hand, may be understood as implying that life is an accident, that perceived beauty and wisdom are ultimately purposeless, and that our instinctive yearning for the Eternal is just an electrical impulse in our brain.

Did God create vegetation on the third day?
Smart question, the kind I like to hear. According to the "plain view" account of Genesis, the sun was created on the fourth day, (Gen 1:16) so many question how could vegetation be made on the third day (Gen 1:11) and populate the earth when as yet there was no sunlight? The answer is simple. Genesis is warning us not to take the context at face value because it was written in metaphoric and esoteric language.
The Book of Keys and the Safar Ha-Zohar (Both are secret doctrines of the Bible) states that the fruit tree and the herb that God created on the third day are angels that cast forth their seed into the world from which come all living. Grass signifies mortal flesh, while the offspring of the fruit tree signifies the angel that brings forth immortal offspring.

Are living thing God's creation?
Some Christians believe that God created all living things just as we see them now. Other Christians believe that living things evolved but that God guided evolution, a process known as theistic evolution. Still others accept that evolution occurred by natural selection, more or less as Charles Darwin described it. The existence of fossil evidence actually precludes the first of these options. Analysis of the fossil evidence and of the evidence of modern life forms, strongly favours natural selection over theistic evolution.

Pros and cons of literal creation?
The pros are that it is very simple and fits with some devoutly cherished religious beliefs.
The cons are that a literal creation flies in the face of reality, and is contradicted by science. Our universe is 13.7 billion years old, and that value has been carefully determined and established by a wide variety of different methods.
What are some ideals to live by?
Most religions preach ideals by which we can live. In most western countries, a well-known set of ideals is incorporated in the ten commandments. Many would also say, "Love your neighbour as yourself," although that is perhaps a misunderstood and probably unattainable goal.
Some universal ideals are: to do the same to others (of whatever religious beliefs or ethnicity) as you hope they would do to you; to show tolerance and respect to those who hold other beliefs; to respect the dignity and rights of all people; to help others in need of any kind of help; to uphold the law in everything we do.

Why is the salinity of the ocean evidence that the earth is not billions of years old?
There is more salt going into the ocean then what is being removed. In the end, then, the oceans are getting saltier an saltier. Suppose we assume that the oceans originally had absolutely no salt in them, and that all of the salt in them today came from the hydrologic cycle. Well, based on the inventory that scientists have done, you can actually determine how long it would take for freshwater oceans to become as salty as they are now. It turns out that the data indicate it would take, at the very most, sixty-two million years to turn from freshwater oceans to salt water oceans with the salinity we see today. This makes it hard to believe the earth is billions of years old, after all, if it were billions of years old, why aren't the oceans a lotsaltier? No one has a convincing answer to that question. Secondly, since the salt water organisms have always been salt water thriving organisms, God made the oceans saltwater.

What is the creation story of Confucianism?
Confucianism does not, on its own, have a unique creation story since it is primarily a philosophy. Confucianism does not assert the presence of any deities, spirits, or other supernatural beings which are usually required in a supernatural creation story. Since Confucianism is a philosophy as opposed to a religion, Confucianists can also have a religion to which they adhere. Most Confucianists are religiously either Atheists or Shenists. (Shenism is the proper term for the folk religions of China.) Atheists do not have a creation story for obvious reasons.
Shenists usually attribute the creation of the world and the creation of humanity to different gods or goddesses.
Creation of the World
One of the most popular creation myths in Chinese mythology describes the god Pangu separating the world egg-like Hundun "primordial chaos" into Heaven and Earth. In this view Heaven and Earth were once mixed together like a chicken's egg. After 18,000 years, this inchoate mass split apart, what was bright and light forming Heaven, and what was dark and heavy forming Earth. For another 18,000 years, Heaven daily increased ten feet in height, Earth daily increased ten feet in thickness. This led to them being thousands of miles apart.
Creation of Humans
The legend states that the goddess Nüwa existed in the beginning of the world. She felt lonely as there were no animals so she began the creation of animals and humans. On the first day she created chickens. On the second day she created dogs. On the third day she created sheep. On the fourth day she created pigs. On the fifth day she created cows. On the sixth day she created horses.
On the seventh day she began creating men from yellow clay, sculpting each one individually, yet after she had created hundreds of figures in this way she still had more to make but had grown tired of the laborious process. So instead of hand crafting each figure, she dipped a rope in clay and flicked it so blobs of clay landed everywhere; each of these blobs became a common person. Nüwa still laboriously crafted some people out of clay, who became nobles.
What statements the one that best reflects an anti- imperialist attitude is?

What language was the Bible written in?
The bible was originally transcribed from the three most prominent languages that were being used at the time which was mainly Hebrew, Greek and Armaic.
It was originally written in Hebrew and Aramaic.
The Old Testament books were mostly written in Hebrew with some in Aramaic, the New Testament was probably originally in Koine Greek, but some people believe that the books were originally written in Aramaic. Aramaic was day to day spoken language of Israel between 516 BCE and 70 AD and therefore the native language of Jesus. However, the earliest version of most of the New Testament is Greek so most of the Gospels in English are translations from Aramaic to Greek to English.
