Maybe the *GAP THEORY*
GENESIS 1:1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
BILLION OF YEARS
Genesis 1:2
Genesis 1:2
Now the earth was [a] formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
I do think there is something to the Gap Theory. That explains the presence of t-rex and the other mega-sauruses before man came along. There is also the “Apparent Age” theory that postulates the earth only appears to be billions of years old but was actually created looking that way. What does a brand-new baby rock look like? Also, Adam was created as a grown man already, not a baby.
