24 hours. You can study the use of the term day and come to the conclusion of a 24 hour day.

I don't believe your creation myth, but following it, it would go thus-
Day One- 10 billion years
Day Two- 4 billion years
Day Three- 1 billion years
Day Four- 500 million years
Day Five- 100 million years
Day Six- 2 million years
(How was there a morning and evening on the first day when the Sun wasn't created until the fourth?)

I don't think the Creation account in Genesis was meant to read literally in the first place. I don't think it has anything to do with the chronology of the earth.

Well, the story goes that God created the earth in 6 days and rested on the 7th. That's how the story goes, whether it's true or not is up to you to decide

I don't think that "God" created the earth. There's no evidence to prove that the world was created as the Bible says so other than the Bible itself, and none of that evidence can actually be proven. Why are people so adamant about being correct when thousands of other religions think that they are as well? Religion is a fallacy based on faith and nothing else. It's stupid to believe that a God exists or doesn't because there's no proof either way.

A thousand yrs.
Edit: I think it’s in 2 Peter where it’s written:
... a day with God is as a thousand yrs. with man ... or words to that effect.
Edit: Here it is:
II PETER CHAPTER 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.
Edit: Also, how long is The Lord's Day?

6 and then He rested on the 7th day. As for what He means by days and how many hours they were I am hoping that I will be able to directly ask Him that some day.
Good question whether you are Christian, Atheist, Buddhist, Wiccan, Muslim, etc..
