There has been some discussion as to whether angels are the first ones, or the progenitors of the first ones. It is doubtful that the fallen angels are those who remain because they are confined, and the angels who are in our universe are unconfined. It may be folly to think that these first ones, and other different substance beings, are not descendants of the angels who chose to go against God; who created them. There was sufficient time from their Sin to when God confined the disobedient angels into their dungeon, for them to spawn. Once the fallen angels started having offspring, disobedience upon defiance degeneratively recursed until evil took the most horrible, hideous form.

A third and equally plausible theory about the beginnings of the first ones are that they were brought forth from the energy of the universe. Energy was available to be the basis of intelligent and supernatural beings long before matter of sufficient atomic weights for corporeal life was formed. This difference in duration explains how the first ones came to be billions of years old.

Of course, the thought of the fallen angels spawning the first ones does not answer `with whom or what did they seed after their kind? Did they seed, or were they the cosmological succubi? Did energy beings pollinate fallen angels? They could have late in day two or early in day three. The fallen angels, spreading their sin, could be chaos and thus happening during the evening, early in day three.

Such beings would bring disaster within the cosmos. As descendants of fallen angels, they must be confined. Perhaps they are limited to the domain of Thirdspace. If they ever break into normal space, within this galaxy, the inhabitants may long for the simple days of Shadow Wars, where the side of light has a chance of winning. So, this rules out the first ones being descendants of fallen angels.

Either way, the first ones are intelligent, powerful, and very old. Therefore, the most probable explanation for the beginnings of the first ones are as energy beings having been brought forth by the Intelligent Designer's influence upon the normal processes He ordained. As sapient beings with wills of their own, they are capable of as much good or evil as pleases themselves. It is their own desires that aligns them with forces of light or forces of dark, order versus chaos.

Their essence and substance is much different than the younger races. They have more force than beings of flesh and blood that were brought forth on other planets during later days, as well as the life on Earth. Many of these old, supernatural beings could have became bored with it all, and went to the other side of their cell, toward what the younger races know as "the rim."

Rarely do the evil ones take on such a repulsive form, especially initially. It starts with a subtle lie, or a lie wrapped around a truth. Once snared, its victims begin a downward spiral from inequity to depravity, and then evil upon evil until judgement or redemption. When evil gets to a certain definition, there be demons. They may be the same substances has some of the first ones.

The eldest of the first ones is Lorien. He watched as the universal processes operating on other energy based beings brought forth those races of the first ones. They came into being, lived, and went beyond the rim within their time. Two types of these first ones have not retired with the others. This does not mean that some of those who have went beyond the rim do not visit the galaxy from time to time as it suits them. These two races of the first ones are known as the Shadows and the Vorlons.

There was nothing remarkable about this racial pair of supernatural beings during their beginnings, and even through perhaps another Day or so. Still, they began alike the other first ones, so they are billions of years old.

Finally, out of the disorder that began day two, came a new order:

    ``...He named the dome "Sky." Evening passed and morning came.that was...'' ...day two. [Gen.1:8]

By the end of day two, there are solar disks with suns and planets within galaxies. There are also intelligent, non-corporeal beings living in the universe, and within this galaxy. The hydrogen and debris of interstellar space has been accreted to form the star known as Sol, with the heavy atoms and molecules forming its planets. Its gas giants are merely massive enough to attract a thick, deep atmosphere.

A later discussion about day four describes the heavens as `appearing.' The critical word is `appear.' The heavens formed during day two, but Sol 3's atmosphere did not clear to transparent before day four. Although the scope of the day four's descriptive passage is assumed to be limited to Sol 3, that effect and process could be galactic; or even universal.

If day one's diary had a universal scope, day two's is reduced to galactic. Day two ends with the evening-first and morning-second sequence repeated. There was a disorder at the beginning of the day, but at the end, there was more order. There was even more order than the day before. Now, there are new and old solar systems throughout the Milky Way galaxy. Likely the same in other galaxies, but that is theirs and someone elses' concern.

Twelve billion years of cosmology are fit within these first two days of Creation. Two days forward in God's Abstract of His Bible is the same as the first twelve billion years of cosmology backward.

Two days and twelve billion years are the same time from opposite perspectives. Still, there are more days of creation, continuing with the third:

    ``...He named the land "Earth," and the water which had come together he named "Sea."'' [Gen.1:10]

On Sol 3, God instituted the difference between continents and oceans. The mechanisms initiated by the Intelligent Designer God still continues. This process probably may not have occurred during day two on any planets of other solar systems. Why? Heavier elements are required to form consolidated minerals; the rocks of solid orbital bodies.

Sol 3, and similar planets of other solar systems undergoing the same or similar processes, now have liquid water. This planet has `mayim;' Hebrew for `liquid water.' Not steam, nor ice, but seas. This does not mean that there were not some ice caps, glaciers, or rapid evaporation, but there were bodies of open water; oceans.

Liquid water brings forth its own surprise:

    ``...So the earth produced all kinds of plants, and God was pleased with what he saw. Evening passed and morning came. that was the third day.'' [Gen.1:12-13]

Actually, evening and then morning of day three. The best order at the end of day two became the disorder of day three. The new order of day three was water and plant life being brought forth by these laws and processes initiated at the beginning. Simple life came soon, geologically referenced, after the formation of liquid water. Day three was only; when compared to the duration of days one and two, two billion years long .

Days two and three account for another five to six billion; on top of day one's eight billion; years of time dilation of the cosmological record. The second Day was half as long as the first; about four billion years, and the third Day was half as long as the second; about two billion years. The first fourteen billion years of the cosmos is accounted by these three days.

The first ones continue to develop, certainly at different rates and from slightly different beginning times. The Shadows and Vorlons continued to develop. They may not have formed their ancient grudge at this time. It is possible that they have not yet met, but not likely during the chaos before order.

Still, the story of creation continues as day four begins with the chaos that was day three's order:

    ``Then God Commanded, "Let lights appear in the sky to separate day from night and to show the time when days, years, and religious festivals begin;'' [Gen.1:14]

The key word is `appear.' Remember! The heavens and the local star were formed, made in day two. During day four, the terran atmosphere clears with the O2 byproduct of plant life. The sun, moon, and stars can now be seen.

    ``...He placed the lights in the sky to shine on the earth, to rule over the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God was pleased with what he saw. Evening passed and morning came.that was the fourth day. [Gen.1:17-19]

The chaos at the beginning of day four was the translucent atmosphere. The order at the end was an atmosphere that was so clear that distant suns twinkled through at night. There are no indigent intelligent beings on the Earth to see and appreciate the universe's handiwork yet, but the stage is being set.

The fourth Day contributed half of the two billion of day three; one billion years, for fifteen billion years. There is three quarters of a billion years to account within days five and six.

Once again, the previous day's order becomes the next day's disorder. The order of day four became the chaos of day five. Like the previous, this change is a matter of definition instead of action.

    ``...He blessed them all and told the creatures that live in the water to reproduce and to fill the sea, and he told the birds to increase in number. Evening passed and morning came.that was the fifth day. [Gen.1:22-23]

Day five added its half if the time contributed by day four; half a billion years. The end of the fifth Day had seen about fifteen and a half billion years pass through the cosmos since God started everything with a bang. The new order on Earth is abundant sea life and birds with the plant life. Life, but no sapience on Sol 3 yet.

It is impossible that the Shadows and Vorlons have not met by the end of day five. Their ancient argument may be at the stage or intensity of a gentleman's bet when order came to this day. Evolution through order or chaos is no more hostile than an intellectual dispute because there are few sapient races to test their contentions.

Day six saw a change in the contest between the beliefs of the Shadows and Vorlons. The younger races were beginning. Their corporeal forms are amenable to the effects of evolution or the effects of The Intelligent Designer's laws of development or entropy. Their argument degrades from academic to theocratic, in the way that they lost the value aspect of the original question.

Meanwhile, this Day Six can be expected to be about a quarter billion years long by the same function as the duration of the previous. Remember, the length of these Days in years is in retrospect. The new order of day five is the chaos at the beginning of day six.

    ``Then God commanded, "Let the earth produce all kinds of animal life: domestic and wild, large and small".and it was done. So God made them all, and he was pleased with what he saw.'' [Gen.1:24-25]

God described this happening on Earth. He did not say that this was not the only planet in the universe bringing forth many varieties of life. Some places can have old species of sapient life of non-corporeal or ectoplasmic substances that can be confused with beings of light. Of course, the Humans could not, or would not, allow or believe that they were not the only beings who have a thought. By some standards, these silly Humans are a very young race in comparison.

    ``Then God said, "And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us. They will have power over the fish, the birds, and all animals, domestic and wild, large and small."'' [Gen.1:26]

So, by this part of Scripture, Humans could become quite full of themselves. They have the temerity to believe that they are at the top of the food chain of the universe. All that has been written thus far, has happened. What is to come?

God, The Creator of the universe, wrote these things, and many others, in His Book. Some things have come to pass, others are to come. Since He is God, He has told of things to come. That means, this is not history yet:

    ``God looked at everything he had made, and he was very pleased. Evening passed and morning came.that was the sixth day.

2:
    ``And so the whole universe was completed. By the seventh day God finished what he had been doing and stopped working. He blessed the seventh day and set it apart as a special day, because by that day he had completed his creation and stopped working. And that is how the universe was created.'' [Gen.1:31-2:4a]

Today is still within the cosmological creation's sixth Day. God is not very pleased with His creation, as most of the remainder of His Word tells. Therefore, we may assume by the trend, and a previous computation remainder of a bit greater than 0.75, that there is some time to run before the end of Day six. The new order from the chaos of the start of day six must be realized so that the seventh Day may begin. Still, the clock ticks.

Will about 125 million years be long enough for God to rest from His creation? That will be only 1/8th out of 16 of billions of years. One-to-128 rest-to-work does not seem a good deal, but maybe it gets better for God during the next Week.
