The creation of Solomon Grundy



In a recent interview with Andrew Billen of The Times John Lennox, Oxford professor of mathematics & writer on god & science said that ‘Genesis does not say the world was created in six consecutive days but on six separate days of the week, with aeons of time between them’.

Is this the Solomon Grundy theory of creation?

The illustrations to that well known nursery rhyme always made it clear to this infant that Solomon Grundy lived to a ripe old age.

Solomon Grundy,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Took ill on Thursday,
Grew worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday,
This is the end
Of Solomon Grundy!
