I cant help but suspect the joke is on both sides of this argument. There's a very old proverb that goes something like "He who knows that he knows, doesn't really know. He who knows that he doesn't know, knows." This is just one of those DIVINE mysteries that mortal man will never really know for sure. It wouldn't surprise me if the ID & Evolution theories are both correct and wrong. What if 7 days to God is 7 billion years to us?

When I was young I did eagerly frequent,
Doctor, Saint, and heard great argument,
About it and about, but evermore came out,
The same door which in I went.

the difference between philosophy and theology is that philosophy begins in man whereas theology begins in God.

Actually, the bible says essentially the same thing:

2 Peter 3:8 - But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

What if the 7 days are really 7 days?
