That was covered before and you were shown to be in error before, too.

How many times does it have to be posted before you actually read it?

I do not have the refrence at work, but there is a breakdown of the first chapter of Genesis that discusses the poetic structure of the days of creation. The first three days are paralleled to the last three days. Days 1 and 4 are parallels (creation of light on the 1st day and the creation of the sun, stars and moon on the 4th), same with 2 and 5 (ocean and sky on the 2nd and fish and birds on the 5th) and 4 and 6 (land and plants on the 3rd and all animals, including man, on the 6th). It is not a common interpretation for biblical literalists, but this structure of writing is analagous to that time period and I'm sure plenty of strict literalist that will strenuously object to this interpretation. Then again, it does not mention the basic other basic phyla such as fungi and prokaryotes so those are mislabeled according to science. They don't fit into the Genesis assignments.
