Ah, yes, sorry for not getting back to you.
I hope you see that my post, along with my tongue-in-cheek responses to Graham, was an attempt to "stir the pot" a bit. Remember how we spoke earlier about a lack of Christians on this board willing to earnestly engage? This very thread is an example. (I stalled on answering you hoping that some real Christians might jump in. They didn't.)
Anyway
Your point is certainly well taken. Of course it could lead to an argument over which Bible references to earth are literal and which ones figurative. Maybe the earth lasts forever, but not in its current form. And that's assuming the Bible isn't contradicting itself (large assumption). Here's something you might find interesting from someone who thinks it can all be reconciled (you can tell from the title of his website).
