What will win the god wars? Faith, Fantasy, Facts, or God?

I'll have a lash at it.

Sura 7:54 says, 'Surely your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six days.' This seems clear and unambiguous. God created everything there was to create in six days.

But in Sura 41:9-12, we have, 'Do you verily disbelieve in Him Who created the earth in two Days and you set up rivals with Him? That is the Lord of the Alamin...He placed therein firm mountains from above it and he bless it, and measured therein its sustenance in four days...Then he completed and finished from their creation as seven heavens in two days...' This is saying that God took two days to create the Earth, four days to add mountains, bless it, and do some measuring, then two more days to create the heavens. This is a total of eight days.

So, one part of the Quran says God created the heavens and the earth in six days, another part says it took him eight days.  Since they can't both be right, this is a mistake and BOOM, the Quran is man-made.

Thank you, I'll be here all week.
