Let's see. On the 3rd day, God created grass, herbs, and fruit trees. But angiosperms don't appear before dinosaurs. It was mosses and ferns and gymnosperms for hundreds of millions of years before that. Then the sun, moon, and stars on the fourth day...criminy, how can anyone think this is the same order of events discovered by science? Aquatic life, including whales, and birds on the 5th day...as has been pointed out, cetaceans didn't inhabit the ocean until long after land animals had developed, and birds certainly did not come before land animals either. On the sixth day we get insects, which should have preceded the whales and birds, land animals, and people. The people by over 400 million years.
Compare that with the evolutionary timeline: cell precursors, single-celled organisms, multi-celled organisms, simple plants, fish and insects, amphibians, reptiles, flowering plants and dinosaurs, mammals, birds, and leading to us; early primates, monkeys, apes, hominids, and finally modern humans.
It's understandable why an iron-age culture would get the order wrong. It's baffling that an information age person would think they got it right.
