I don’t. Other than that, as I mentioned, assuming God created the universe at any finite point in time, thousands or billions of years ago doesn’t even matter, why did the idea never occur to him in the infinite expanse of time prior to that point?

So God did not create the universe in your model.

Fine if you abandon the Bible.

Do you believe the Bible?

Issiah 55:8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD.

Psalm 33:11 But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.

2 Peter 3:9 the Lord is not slow in regard to the promise, as certain count slowness, but is long-suffering to us, not counselling any to be lost but all to pass on to reformation,

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

That time is a construct of our existence.
