As for the Genesis account, virtually all Rabbis and other Christian scholars interpreted that text to mean literal days, at least until the Enlightenment. Try as you may, the exceptions do not prove the rule.
What can I say? That's a really bad argument. In fact, it's a non-argument. An appeal to authority? Do you trust Rabbis and Christian scholars? I sure as hell don't. Anyway, it doesn't matter. If there was an argument by anyone against what I say, they would lose. Rabbi and Hebrew or Christian scholar. Unless, the merit is determined by tradition. What I say goes against tradition. Which has a piss-poor record of accuracy.
