Answer
Light!According to the Bible, God created light on the first day.
There is artificial light, such as that produced by lightbulbs, as well as natural light. Of course, natural light comes from the sun. Too much sunlight, especially when it's hot, can make you sick (i.e. heat stroke, sunburn).

Easy. Gave it away with "Divinely created!" But hey I do like an easy one from time to time! Great Job. I should really write on myself some day. hmm But I'm lazy. *lol*
Anybody that ever went to church or read the Bible and took more than 5 seconds to figure the answer should be pistol whipped.
This one I got by accident. I thought light was the answer due to the artifical, vs natural..
Ha! Let there be some Truth!
I really liked that!
Liked it. Easy.
I thought sunlight right away, but artificial light from a tanning bed will toast you too!

I thought "light" soon as I read "first day"
Artificial light can make you sick, too. It's been proven that staring at a computer or TV screen for too long can cause health problems, sometimes very serious health problems.

Easy teaser, but a very good one. Thanks Sweetmama.
If every single person says its a really easy teaser, then by definition it's lame. This one sure was.
WOOHOO Teaser of The Day! Thanks for all the NICE comments!
zaya needs to get a new dictionary!!!
for one thing not every single person said it was easy.Some did not get it.So I guess that means its not lame in his/her book.
If you don't like easy ones don't do them.

SURE DID FOOL ME. I THOUGHT OF APPLES.
I got it I liked it
doehead ... pistol whipped? I didn't find that punishment in my Bible.
Good, easy teaser. Knew it as soon as I saw "first day" and "Divinely created"
BTW Sweetpotato and Doehead, that might be a Catholic School punishment! I've heard that they can be painful and cruel
I thought the answer was the sun, it also fits. Great one!
That was a very nice teaser.
fun but both types of light can cause sickness
I don't think there was anyone around to see the sun or the light, even on the first biblical day, since the first thing was the light, was it not? I don't like biblical references either, since there's an assumption of belief and I don't. Believe, that is. Good enuf puzzler, though. You can't get too picky on these. They are teasers. and DoeHead hates everything
See what religious quizes do!! They start arguments with a lot of people and should be eliminated.
I didn't see it at first glance, then when I saw the rating under two, I thought I could get it and then I did.
My day is BRIGHTENED by an easy teaser.
Good one! I got it.
As doehead said years ago, anyone who has ever even heard of the bible or the christian creation story should have solved this in seconds. I didn't even read past the first line.
Nice! Believe it or not I thought it was sugar too, even though I absolutely love the Christian point of view. But absolutely great teaser!
meh.. I didn't think it was that great
Got this one right away. There is a saying about never discussing religion or politics with the family, it will always cause arguements. Well Braingle is like a family and it sure held true here! Lighten up folks, it was a riddle, not a sermon!
Easy teasy. Not bad, not great.
I knew it instantly, but I loved it!
Light was actually created through language.
Btw, someone mentioned the sun; I believe the sun was created on a following day?

I liked it more than I did 6 years ago, but still found it pretty easy. Maybe getting older has me slowing down a bit!
