The literal creation story is absolutely ludicrous and at direct odds with reality, so I applaud you for cutting off that dead wood.
Since in Jewish reckoning a day began with the evening, it's kinda hard to interpret "and the evening and the morning were the fifth day" as anything but a literal 24 hour day. Abandoning the literal interpretation in an effort to make the babile fit intoscience is just disingenuous obfuscation (got bored saying bullshit all the time and thought I'd try something more precise).
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
