the Bible does say that creation lasted 6 days.
the Bible also says that a day with God is as a thousand years.
now ... do you remember reading genesis?
when God instructed man about eating of the fruits of the
trees in the garden , he clearly stated that if man were
to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil that
he would die...
they would have never died if they would not have eaten from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil else God would not
have warned them that they would die if they did.
really why would God say that they would die?
and we don't really know how many days that passed away before
adam and eve ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil after adam was created by God , but for each of those days that did pass then each day would have been as a thousand years as it is with God.
thus therefore and hitherto , a hundred days would be as a hundred thousand years.
a single year would have been as 365 thousand years.
it appears that you do take the Word of God literally when
you imagine that it may come in handy in a discussion about the Bible so its obvious that this will clear up your concerns.
there were a lot of animals for adam to name in the
garden and naming each one would have taken a really long time
especially when adam had no previously used names to choose from and he had to invent each name that he used in the naming of all of the animals on earth.
