Or when the creation account says seven days while using the word "day" (Hebrew yohm) as being 1) the daylight hours metaphorically, 2) the day as being a literal 24 hour period metaphorically, 3) the entire creation period of 6 days as 1 day the word "day" is up for consideration. Especially when the seventh day is still going on thousands of years later, to this day. If, likewise, I use the term "my grandfather's day" in a way that doesn't beg the conclusion that my grandfather lived exactly a single 24 hour period and compare that to the thousand year "Judgment day" of the Bible a literal 144 hour creation is pretty irresponsible. After years of study I am confident it is also uninformed.
Then I suggest that you go to the good folks at answersingenesis and tell them that since
they are of the rock solid belief that the six days of creation is the literal truth.
