If the Hebrew word is restoration for the 6 days then it is restoration not creation as in Gen. 1.1. And you shouldn't take issue with the Bible creating perfectly in verse 1 without saying how long it took to create perfectly.

No your interpretation is just wrong, that's all it's ok, we can't be right about everything all the time.

If it's wrong show me.

So then god didn't create the universe at all, then. He just "restored it." By the way, there's still a big difference between six and thirteen billion that you haven't accounted for with anything but a shrug.

He created it perfectly in 1.1.

Again, empty assertion with no evidence.

You really are starting to get rather tedious buckyball.

I have enjoyed it many years. Keep reading and you come to this as well...

12 Historical Facts (Most Critical Scholars Believe These 12 items)

5. The disciples had experiences which they believed were literal appearances of the risen Jesus (the most important proof).

6. The disciples were transformed from doubters to bold proclaimers.

7. The resurrection was the central message.

8. They preached the message of Jesus’ resurrection in Jerusalem.

10. Orthodox Jews who believed in Christ made Sunday their primary day of worship.

11. James was converted to the faith when he saw the resurrected Jesus (James was a family skeptic).

Proof by assertion, appeal to authority, circular reasoning (because I assume you're using the bible to show why the bible is true).

No evidence.

Ignored.

The same 1:1 that goes on to assert it took him six days? And your one argument against this is that the word "creation" should have been translated as "restoration," isn't it?

So...
