How can you still be convinced that Earth was created in 7 days by a "God", when there is substantial and amazing evidence that shows a totally different theory which makes sense? How could God define a day when the 24 hour cycle was created by the Mesopatiums(excuse my spelling). I am really intrigued at how so many naive people there are, still believing in stories that make just as much sense as Santa Clause and the tooth fairy.

First of all, not "a" God, "the" God, the one and only true and living God.
Now...second, 2 Peter 3:8-9
"But beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering to us; not willing that any man should perish, bt that all men should come to repentance."
May God add a blessing to the reading of His read Word....God Bless
See, Ernest77h knows what I'm talkin about

The 7 day cycle was not created by the Mesopotamians. And there is an abundance of evidence that supports creation.
Did you know that it is a scientific fact that it takes more faith to believe in evolution than it does in creation?
Did you know that there are many theories that evolution can't explain?
If you want to find out more about some of these visit one of the following websites:

LOL you can pretty much assume with confidence all those that failed to answer you believe in the 7-day baloney!
Have you also noticed, that over the past decade or so, the xtian religion, although a firm disbeliever in it, has actually EVOLVED! They have started changing the meanings of the bible and even getting rid(making less sinful, anyway)of some of the rules too, to 'appeal' to the youth of today? How ironic...
:D

I will agree that God most likely took a thousand years as one day to create the earth and so on but God also made a time period for us to go by with the setting of the sun. all of Gods sabbaths begin at sunset and end the folowing sunset.
2pe 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
2pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

YOU ARE THE ONE THAT IS NAIVE...it is written in the bible that God made heaven, earth, light, darkness, seas, land, plants, animals, etc. in 7 days and then he created Adam and Eve and Adam couldn't resist but to eat Eve's fruit...eventually all of man turned bad and some guy named Noah built this ark because it was about to rain for 30 days and 30 nights and then animals came two-by-two onto this ark, and this flood wiped out 100's of 1000's of bad people......eventually Jesus was born, and sacrificed his life on a cross so that we could go to heaven, or something....It's ****** real man, all of it, it's written in the bible and the bible don't lie.

Substitute the word ""YOM"" for the word day.
Yom == HE did this,
Yom== HE did this,
YOM== HE did............................
Before ""Days"" where called Days the ancient scrolls said YOM = TIME!
Get it?
First HE..................
then HE.............................
