This is a good point. Unfortunately nobody but the United States really
cares about how many days it took God to create. The Bible is and always
will be a religious book, and Not a history book.
A day can mean amost anything. It is most probably used as term to
signify a time period. What that time was is unknown. Since God is
eternal and has no time frame, it could've been millions of years
between "days".
To reinterate my first point. Nobody cares except the U.S. The Bible is
not a history book. ONly in the U.S. is the bible taken as a history
book.
The important issue is that God created not how he created. I think you
are missing the point in your whole question.
