the sequal to my poll on if the earth is 6000 years old.

if anyone actually believes this, I'm interested in how a period of 24 hours has any relevance before the earth's creation, and any relevance to someone who does not exist on the earth.

Apparentely there are some people (the same who believe the Earth is 6000 years old) who beleive that the Biblican creation story of the universe in 6 days means literally that, 6 periods of 24 hours.

Yes, the Bible says so and that's good enough for me.

why would a day be the same to God? And why would a period of 24 hours have any relevance to God who does not exist on the Earth, especially before the Earth even existed?

Josh you did not explain why God would care about 24 hours days since the period of a day is based on the earth's rotation and the creation story started before the earth existed, and as God does not exist on earth such a period has no relevance at al to him.

Hang on a moment. A 24 hour day is determined by the sun isn't it? But the sun wasn't created until the 4th day was it not.....so perhaps the 'days' before it were say several billion years long....

The bible already states the answer but everyone keeps overlooking it. "A day in the eyes of God is a thousand years to man"

you two get it, the fundies don't.
