God didn't create the animals as He presented them to Adam.

It is very clear that he created the animals ...

Gen 2:18 And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

Gen 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air;

"Gen 2:18 And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him."

He didn't make a help mate for Adam when He created the animals though did He? He had already made the animals, He presented them to Adam for naming and to demonstrate that none of them were a suitable help mate?

Then after the presentation of the animals, He made the help mate, Eve.

LOL that was a gotcha. I guess literalism only goes to the point where things become absurd even to the creationist.
