Going back to science, time as we know it and the rules of time that are true on earth just dont exist other places in the universe, Have a read of anything by Hawkins, youll see that our rules only apply here, so as god is suppose to live in the heavens who's to say if his day was 24 hours or 1 second or 1 billion years, it never once states in the bible that gods day has 24 hours in it

Hawking. I have a BS in physics by the way.
OK, so if you read Genesis you see that right away God created the light and the darkness and called the light "day". There's the definition of a day for you. One light rules the day, the other light rules the night to give light upon .. surprise! The Earth! The author called the next evening and morning "the next day". Each new day of "creation" begins with "and the evening and the morning were the nth day".
Also, the creation story has all the "flying fowl" created on the same day as all the creatures of the sea which is very much in conflict with evolution.
The story is clearly in an extremely deep conflict with evolution when the only way you can reconcile the two stories is to assume that day refers to a period of time in an undiscovered place called heaven where either due to a massive gravitational or due to its moving at an extremely high velocity one day is actually millions. "Day" is defined in the bible in a clear enough way.
