14: But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15: But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
16: For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

I did not ask for more bible passages, I asked you to TRANSLATE it into the secular.

The secular info is included.
Why do those that quote the bible ad infinitum never give a straight answer to a simple question. No wonder Native American Indians talked about the forked tongue.

I explained my belief of ( The World is only 6000 years old ) in other posts in this thread.
If you really want to know go back and read what I wrote.
Maybe you quoted the wrong verse. Here is Job 38:6
Job 38:6 On what were its sockets sunk? Or who directed its cornerstone in place,
Gee, when I added a deck to my house I sunk sockets (holes into which I placed the support posts). Flat ground.
The only planet in existence according to the ancients was not spherical but flat, as described throughout the bible and throughout Mediterranean cultures.
Look, you can believe whatever you want, but to do so you have to assume pretty much that all of science is wrong. Yet you have no problem using a computer and the internet, both of which are the result of a fair share of mathematics, the same science which demonstrates that the universe is appx 13,5 billion years old.
If you were not able to misinterpret the text into saying the earth was spherical, would you still believe in a flat earth?
by definition, this cannot be true, because if "the creator" was "born with" the "universe",
then he/she/it would not be the creator.
To the OP, just because most (not all) Roman Catholic schools teach that evolution
could be true, or "is true" (depending upon the instructor, I presume), does not mean
anything. It was not long ago (within my lifetime) that the Catholic schools did NOT
teach evolution. Evolutionary science attempts to formulate answers that have not
been proven to be true, and is still missing conclusive evidence. The Church has no
official position, except to say that IF evolution happened, it was set forth and directed
by God.
The laws of physics actually deny a 4.5 billion year old earth. The moon would have been much closer and would have caused huge tides. The strength of the magnetic field would have been so strong that that alone would have destroyed life. The earth would have experienced such strong winds as would have swept everything away. The earth would have turned so fast that centrifugal force would have thrown everything into space.
Also, there is not nearly enough mud and silt in the oceans and the salinity of the oceans deny an old earth.
