This is a serious question........................
I do believe that God created everything 100%.
In the Bible, it is suggested that the job was done in 7 days.
How long is one of God's days?
We judge time based on the physical movement of the planet earth.
How does God judge the passage of time?

The job was done in six days. On the seventh day He rested.

I think the Genesis creation account is really too generous. Personally, I think he did it all at once in an instant. But then again, the FACT that God created the heavens and the earth is the point of the story, not how long he took to do it.

God is outside of time, because time is part of creation. This means that time is measured according to creation, not according to 2 Peter 3:8, which refers to timeless God and his patience.
This is what God gave us to judge the passage of time: And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years, and let them be lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth." And it was so. (Genesis 1:14)
