God created the universe over a slightly longer period of time. (A day is as a thousand years, etc.)

The book of Genesis has been misread for years. Those six days of creation were not earth days. "And the evening and the morning was the first day." note that
G D did not create our Sun until the third day according to Genesis. Therefore we can logically deduce that days in question were in fact based on another system. Possibly were a single day may in fact be Millions or Tens of Millions of Earth years long.

The advent of man I find misread as well Genesis states that man was created on the sixth day and that G D then rested. Then it tells of how G D saw that of the men he created that there was no man that tilled the soil. He then create a new man slightly different from the others, ergo Adam and Eve were created on the eight day or after. This explains where Cain got his wife from.

Do you think that's why he put "and the evening and morning..." in there? Oh well, since we don't believe that, we'll just ignore that little bit.

"Oh rats!", God said, "I forgot to create a man to till the soil!" (slaps forehead). Course, he didn't want to put that in Genesis, so he conveniently left that out.
