Genesis/PoGP is not about the creation of the earth or humans.
It's a magnificent allegory on the meaning of life.
Phrases can have many meanings. The symbolism is as deep as you can dig.
There is a reason why this stuff is in the temple, where the mysteries of godliness are to be revealed. -stuff we weren't prepared to understand primary, which is where you learn about the genesis story.
