Physicist creationist

Physicist creationist
A few weeks ago I had a lesson in physics about stars and the big bang. My teacher was explaining how there is alot of evidence for the big bang and how that's most likely how the universe began. Somebody in my class asked her "Do you believe that God made earth and all living things or do you believe the universe began after the big bang". To which she answered "I believe that God made earth in 6 days". I was going to question her reasoning but I just couldn't be bothered as alot of people in my class think I'm some kind of weird satanist for not believing in God. I just facepalmed so hard. I mean she has a masters degree in physics and explains how the big bang is true but then goes on to say how she's a creationist. I wouldn't give a shit if she said that she believes in God, but seriously, a physics teacher a creationist! I even told my Mum who is a catholic and she even laughed at the teacher and called her stupid.

Why would an omnipotent being need 6 days exactly?

And then a fucking lie-down?

Oh yeah, he slowed it down for us, just to show he did it in a stupid order.

He was smoking weed at the time, fucked up a bit, had to redo some of it, then got tired because creating the universe is hard.  And there were no Doritos!
