Man Or Beast?
The SAB outdo themselves with this objection. Here it is under the interpretation category:

The beast of the earth, beast of the field

And God made the beast of the earth. -- Genesis 1:25
The Christian Identity and Aryan Nations folks say that "beast of the earth" and "beast of the field" refer to all non-human animals and non-white humans. They consider all people of color to be without a soul and on the same level as animals, such as cattle, fish, and birds.
The Christian Identity and Aryan Nation movements are non Christian racist sects who twist and use the message of the Bible to further their own racist agendas, in a similar way that David Koresh did at Waco, and not unlike the way the SAB use it to further their atheist agenda.
The beast of the earth and beast of the field refer to what they say, non human animals. The Bible is not and never has been racist, as is testified by the redeemed people worshipping in heaven -- "And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;" (Revelation 5:9).
It's amazing the lengths the unbelieving mind will go to in order to try and oppose the will and purpose of God; it reminds us of Joseph's brothers.
The next instalment will deal with the question of how many Gods the Bible teaches about.
Bye for now.
