"Except, the Bible doesn't say six 'normal' days, it uses the term Yom which can translate as a 12 hour day, 24 hour day, or an 'age' of indeterminate amount of time"

Wrong again. The Bible uses the phrase "the evening and the morning were the ___ day" to make it clear that it was normal days. Tough for the propagandists.

That is a startlingly widespread misconception; very sloppy Hebrew.

yom is never unambiguously used with an ordinal or cardinal number in reference to anything but a normal day. Or, put positively, whenever yom is found in conjunction with a number, the reference is always to a normal day.

I guess you are referring to Genesis 1:8, (for example of morning) to the word Boqer (BQR) in Hebrew this word means morning (end of night), like the beginning of day but also refers to ‘light’ or even ‘the beginning of joy’. It does not necessarily have a direct definition to say ‘this physical morning’, just like we may say that our marriage was the ‘dawning of a new day’.

Limiting it to just the choice of English translation and interpretation we use often means we miss the beauty of the original language and we also limit ourselves to really understanding the deeper meanings in what we are reading.
