If you want to disavow him, that's fine. Welcome to the club.

But once you start down the road of disavowing "literal" readings there is no going back.
I am reading the Bible literally. Ussher apparently overlooked some things when he read the Bible.

His invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Romans 1:20 ESV
