So which length of day did God use to create the universe? Hmmm?

And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day. --Genesis 1:3-5

And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." 7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day. --Genesis 1:6-8

The rest of the sections of the creation account in genesis end with basically 'and there was evening, and there was morning'. You may read the rest of it at your leisure. He created the Earth before the cosmos; Earth's day is defined as one rotation about its axis. I think it's pretty clear what He meant.

Putting the little sneering hmmm's at the ends of your questions are unnecessary and make you look like a sulking five year old trying to win a game of gotch'ya. It's not becoming of an FR poster.

I understand that you are espousing your religions faith, and wish to respect your right to your beliefs. However, from every point of view other than religious dogma, what is unbecoming is the breathtaking ignornace in your post.

I also understand fully that there is no use discussing such subjects with rigid religious fundamentalists, no matter what religion they practice.
