I don't believe He needed six days. I believe God could have created everything outside of time, or in a shorter or longer amount of time than we can understand. I believe the six days of work and rest on the seventh are an example for us.

By asking this question, you are assuming that the answer must necessarily be one of these two. The two things are not connected: it could be neither.
Personally, I do not believe that the Earth was created in 7 days and everything went literally like the Bible narrates. I do not believe in coincidences either. It might be reasonable to expect that the laws of nature are not just random but work according to a specific plan: but it doesn't necessarily have to be YOUR idea of God that planned it. Anyway, any answer anyone can give is pure speculation - we have no way whatsoever of knowing which is the right answer, if there is one.

I don't think either is at all plausible. In fact I believe both are nearly impossible. I think that instead everything is based on necessary mathematical laws.
Coincidence or Creator forms a "false dichotomy fallacy".
You can't explain the origin of apparent complexity by a prior greater complexity. You don't explain the seemingly improbable with a greater improbability.
The only way to provide an answer to complexity without creating a far bigger problem than you had initially is though the mechanism of selection from variance. The variance is provided through mathematics, the selection is provided by our own existence.

What would make someone think that just becouse they don't have the answer as to how the universe came to be, that a god had to have created it? Becouse there is a book that man said was written by god is not an answer, it is a lazy copout and an excuse to controll the masses thrue fear. People quote scripture all the time, but all that does is bring us back to square one. If you don't buy the god story then scripture is usless. As of yet noone has the answers to how the universe came to be. Science is not always right but when it is wrong it keeps looking for the answer. Religion stops at the book and keeps itself stagnant. Dogma makes people stop looking for the truth and punishes them that do. I can see why people are sheep becouse they have been brought up in an opressive mindset. For someone who has always been brought up to think for himself and to test theorys it is hard to understand how anyone could ever get caught up in religion. It is just so plain to see that religion has missed the mark. I really feel for the lost religious people in the world. It is so sad to see all the waisted minds caught up in the lies of religion. I hope that one day they will all wake up and see that they have only a very short time on this earth and should not keep waisting their time on fairy tales and storys. it is a pity.

Since neither is true, I can't answer this questions as it is asked.
Genesis 1:1 doesn't have a time-frame or time-parameter. What you refer to as "seven days" was actually God restoring life to this planet after an undisclosed period of time where life no longer existed here. Genesis 1:2 in the Hebrew language states that the earth "became" lifeless, void, and a ruinous ruin. If you pursue the Hebrew language, it makes for a very interesting study.
God bless you and keep you

I do not have enough faith to believe in random chance as a plausible way of creation of anything.
There are existences and matters far beyond our human comprehension. This in it self is a powerful argument that there is a Supreme Being.
Jesus himself told his followers that there are magnificence beyond there ability to even imagine. And almost every culture from the beginning of time has accepted that there is some form of 'spirit world' in evidence, but not readily seen.

easily, the most ideal explination/ concept i have heard for the way guy ought to stay so long is that on the time of Adam and the former testimate the earth's outer ecosystem grow to be fairly humid, even to the point that it grow to be icy in chilly elements, turning out to be, and causing a greenhouse type of effect that would have allowed guy to live to inform the tale a lot a lot longer than immediately. This also starts a concept to describe the excellent flood, which grow to be defined no longer as rain, yet that water poured from the heavens and struck the earth with tremendous stress. It also says water got here from the floor, which means it had to be compelled up from the floor. It is going on to discuss how volcanic interest would have brought with regard to the ambience to regulate and set off the "rain", or per chance a meteor. so some distance as an actuall calculation to exhibit the size of a "god minute", i don't think of were gonna ever determine that one out. --you;re on course besides the undeniable fact that. people get the incorrect theory about god basically making issues seem in creation using vauge wording in the former testiment. Even such issues as evolution ought to easily be the way god chosen to do it. i imagine in case you want to come across a calculation for "god time", you need to envision how lengthy, in concept, it took for guy to evolve, destroy that down into 6 days, and now you've an increment of our time to judge to gods time.?! keep in suggestions besides the undeniable fact that...... it is depending on the concept of evolution. it would also be relaxing to attempt it on diverse concept's too. basically keep in suggestions god isn't a wizard, he's god......superNATURAL,
