If the operational definition of time is the same as the calculated definition of time, then what big difference is there? None. The Bible doesn't use the operational definition of time, since it hadn't been invented at the time. Secondly, if it had, then the notion of 500 year old partiarchs would never have been made up. Playing around with definitions to suit your argument is very lame.
I don't think you are reading what I am typing, I said the Bible used the OBSERVATIONAL definition of time. Not the OPERATIONAL definition of time.
