But if you look at the entire picture from a logical and philosophical stand point you will be able to see that the beginning of the bible was written in a very simple overview of the actual creation process. The bible states that the world was created in 6 days. The way we measure a day on this planet is how long it takes the planet to make one complete revolution on it's axis. The planet earth was not around during the beginning phases of the creation process, so how do you measure time when the unit of measurement has not yet been set into motion.
The bible talks very simply about the creation process and in doing so may have overlooked the fact that it took millions of "our" years to create the heavens and the earth, but that God is timeless and therefore is not bound to the limits of this dimension or time itself.
The whole idea of trying to disprove the existence of God by using science, based on assumptions that we even actually exist on a physical plain, is like asking the question, " Which came first, the chicken or the egg". It does not really matter how the universe came into being from a religious point of view, only that you have enough faith to accept that God does exist and to live your life accordingly.

We weren't discussing God. Neither was Darwin or any other biologist. Your
theory is based on a literal interpretation of a metaphysical work. It
destroys the beauty of the Bible. By the way, pi is equal to 3 in the
Bible. So don't use it as your math text book either.
