Light - the Big Bang
Light did not occur at the time of the big bang but some 300,000 yeasrs later when the temperature had cooled sufficiently to allow nuclei and electrons to form atoms and allow the radiation of electromagnetic energy.
Firmament - the expanse/expansion of the Universe
From Genesis 1:6-8
God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it separate between water and water.” So God made the firmament, and separated the waters which were beneath the firmament and the waters which were above the firmament. And it was so. God called to the firmament” “Heaven.” And there was evening and there was morning, a second day
Since it would appear that the firmament divides the waters above {clouds that produce the rain} from the waters below { the oceans and lakes and rivers},It is unreasonable to equate this with the expansion of the universe at all. The expansion of the universe has no reference whatsoever to water.
Earth
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Before the earth had formed there were waters?
Also we have this
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
And this was done before light was spoken into existence. Yet ,since the consensus in science is that the planets,including earth, were formed through the production of heavy elements forged in stars and supernova this cannot be true. It is out of order.
Well that is a start into the error that this OP has produced on its first 3 arguements and If need be we can further elaborate on these as well as discuss other inconsistencies too.

Re: pots and kettles, some of which are black

I guess the reason that I would want to prove the God of the Bible is because of salvation purposes. You may wonder why we fight so hard to unite the Bible with science. It's because real truth agrees with it.
And which real truth, do you assert, agrees with science?
