Re: Asimov on Genesis

The believers would counter Asimov that

(a) The books themselves may have been written by the hands of man, but each hand that wrote it was directed by God.

(b) They are not putting limits on God persay; they can easily phrase it like this: "Sure, God could've created the universe the way scientists put it, and we are not denying it. We're simply saying God didn't create THIS universe that way. We're not positing why, just that he didn't do it that way. Sort of like how we decide one way to take the shortcut through the trees rather than the long way round."
