Why bother? You're just going to blindly assert that your interpretation of whatever we say conveniently sidesteps the obvious contradiction.
But the easiest one would just be that the creation account is contradicted by what we know of biological evolution; the bible makes an unambiguous claim that all life was created, in pairs where humans are concerned. This is, quite simply, wrong: life evolved gradually as part of a complex, interconnected series of speciations from common ancestors. If your response is to appeal to interpretation then you're essentially saying that the bible says one thing, but means the exact opposite of the words it says, and I don't know why you expect any of us to take that seriously at all.
