He made the earth in 6 days for a significant reason, to establish "time" for mankind - 6 days and the Sabbath. You can't count the first day because God created light,
The second day God created the atmosphere...and the oceans.
The third day -significant in the Bible-He made land and seeded it.
The 4th day was spent on the heavens
The 5th day was spent on animals and critters and stuff..
The 6th day he created peeps..
The 7th He rested so He could enjoy what He had finished making...
So you see it took one day to make the earth...which might have included forming some mountians, valleys, maybe layering some strata, carving a few canyons and lets not forget there were something like 3 or 4 rivers...alot more detail than burning balls of gas or astroid belts and so forth. Aside from that...it doesn't number the stars except for the ones that give light on the earth the other billions could have been there...Astronomers see new stars all the time...also the old ones blowing up. Space is full of more than just stars too...there's all that nifty beautiful nebula, moons, other planets and so forth...so...maybe as God is a God who creates He a few hundred or so stars everyday...? One question that might intrique you to try and figure out is this....all the steps to creation had to have taken place in the order that they did or it wouldn't have come together...God follows His own laws. Light before the sun, plants before animals, all the animals listed in their specific phylem and the term "after their kinds"...even Eve being created from Adam's rib bone makes sense because its a bone one can easily live without versus say a shin bone or part of his skull...fer reals. Kinda freaky...yet, if you think that's odd...go read what non-scientist, astronomer, geologist Job had to say about creation....Love in Christ, ~J~

He didn't. It took God billions and billions of years of what we call evolution for God to make what we see today.

Well, first he started to make the Earth out of green cheese, and then he said “myself dammit” ... that should be the Moon. Then he started again and made the Earth flat...then it was like “Jesus christ, I screwed it again...that will show me to hand off part of the job to my alter ego”. Finally this raging schizophrenic got it right, which made it the third day.
“... And it was good”.

Maybe because of the detail here on earth, everything else is gas, rock or ice.

He can do anything He wants to do.
He worked harder to make Earth a really cool place for us because He loves us so much.
I love it! Isn't our planet the best?

The love and care He put into creating our earthly dwelling is not surprising. He wants us to have the best there is.
God Bless You....Peace.

He is a lil bit slow you know, but no matter how stupid he is, it is statistically impossible to always be wrong. ^_^
