I don't think you have to read anything into the text to buy the theory.  I 
think it's actually a sense that something is missing from the text that is 
the basis of the theory.  I don't read Hebrew but even in English I get a 
strong sense of "change" (for lack of a better description) between Gen. 1:1 
& 1:2.  From what I've read this sense comes out stronger in Hebrew but I 
wouldn't know.  Anyhow, I like this theory because it a least explain to 
mind the fossil record that we do have which is clear evidence of an 
extremely ancient earth.  As to the fossil record that we don't have and 
have been waiting to discover since the time of Darwin (who himself said we 
would have by now), I guess I'll just have to let the experts keep digging.  
Believe me, I'm waiting in eager anticipation.
