Either the bible says what it says, or it doesn't. I don't try to transform what is said into something it doesn't say. If Genesis describes literal days of creation, morning and evening of the first day, morning and evening of the second day, etc, I don't, for instance, try to interpret this to mean eons.
If the supernatural creator lives at the center of the universe, how could we possibly know how long his day is? Our solar system revolves around the sun, Our entire solar system is a miniscule part of our Milky Way Galaxy. I assume our galaxy in turns revolves around something. Wonder if maybe the Lord's day might easily be billions of years. There is a lot out there that is pretty hard to get your mind around. A billion is a thing hard to grasp.
Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
