"I can easily reconcile the earth's creation in 6 days to a scietific view of it taking billions of years by men's reckoning."

Then one has to explain to me how the plant life existed for millions of years with out the sun.

The plants were created on the 3rd day and the sun on the 4th.

Then one has to explain to me how the plant life existed for millions of years with out the sun.

Perhaps in the same way the plants didn't instantly die when zapped to life on cold sun-less rock?
