Is this binding in some way? Do we implicitly accept it by being part of TOL, like user agreements on software?

Uhhhhh........ no.

The statement of faith is for "you" to know what "WE" at TOL believe.

How do we know for sure what the Webmaster/Knight/DBC means by "in the space of six literal days?"

Maybe it's symbolic.

If we agree with the statement ....do we get free software?

[Crow]

If we do, Knight owes me some software....whoops--didn't catch the six literal days part when I originally wrote this. I have to admit some doubt there.

Being more specific, is the "WE" you are referring to the Administrators as listed here?

Pretty much.

Six literal days is not in most statements of faith, but it is a good idea. If we doubt the literal interpretation of Genesis, we might have to doubt John also. Six long ages is problematic in light of science, grammar, and Genesis chronology.

The statement sounds like a paraphrase or compilation of historic creeds.

Alright, we get to post on a piece of TOL history. Cool.

[SOTK]

I am complete agreement with the TOL Statement of Faith!

[Lighthouse]

It seems to me that Jews believe in six literal days, since they observe the seventh day sabbath.

Statement of Faith at ToL. Cool!

Gonna keep a copy.

[MrsDearDelmar]

I agree with the six literal days as well!!!

Christ commands His followers to rebuke and to judge with righteous judgment and to forgive those who repent.

It's a shame that not too many people, Christians or others, don't believe this or follow it like we are commanded to.
