Genisis

[kermit911]

Define Genisis on a planitary scale? I was watching the posibility of life outside earch on the History Chanel and they use the word Genisis. "This could be a second genisis"

[QmunkE]

According to dictionary.com, the definition of Genesis is:

The coming into being of something; the origin.

So, on a planetary scale, I guess you'd say it was the beginning of that planet's history, or at the very least the beginning of a new era of some sort.

[MargeB]

Basically, in the beginning, there was nothing. Then God created the Garden of Eden. Then he created Adam and Eve. Then he created Phil Collins. This is how Genesis occurred.

[janesmythe22]

Well, one can't say "in the beginning there was nothing", simply because in the beginning there was "beginning". Now whoever wrote bible realised that (at least John understood the problem): "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God". The Musical Box came later.
