"Ok, I see what you mean. In Chapter 1 it says seed bearing plants and trees, whereas Chapter 2 says shrubs and plants of the field.

Justin Mooney replied to Karissa Adams's discussion 'Genesis 2:5-6?'"Yes, Genesis 2 is a more detailed account of day six, but that alone doesn't explain why the order of events specifically for plants and humans seems to be reversed in chapter two.
The best solution I've seen goes something like this: In…"

Genesis 2:5-6?
On what day were Adam and Eve created?Genesis 1:26 makes it sound like they were created on the 6th day. But in Genesis 2:5-6 it says that Adam was created before there was any vegetation.

Welcome to creation conversations! I can completely understand the frustrations you have. I love science, but it's sad to see so many people equate evolution with science. Hopefully you will get some of the encouragement you're…"

- I have an interest in Science, but became discouraged in my college science classes when the teachers stated evolution as fact, and all the students nodded in agreement. I wanted to find people who saw what I saw: that it could not have happened by accident. At the very least, I wanted to ask questions about the validity of evolution, but didn't know what to ask or how to really defend my view, because I myself didn't fully understand my view. What I need now is a community of believers who are interested in science and want to discuss science with God in the picture. I'm in college now, so I need a Christian community more than ever. I want to be able to answer questions that unbelievers have without stumbling over my own answers, and I know that the way to do that is to stay in the Word of God and to keep in contact with fellow believers.

Hi Karissa,
Welcome to creation conversations! I can completely understand the frustrations you have. I love science, but it's sad to see so many people equate evolution with science. Hopefully you will get some of the encouragement you're looking for here.
Also, there are a lot of really great books out there to help you fully understand and be able to defend your view. The Answers books are great, and I would also highly recommend The Ultimate Proof of Creation, though it's definitely a book you have to stop and think about while you're reading it. (There are helpful companion videos to this book you can watch Here and Here.)
Also, if there is a campus ministry at your school, it would be worth checking them out. I know not all campus ministries are the same, but I have gotten a lot of encouragement from the ministry at my school.
God Bless.
