OK. I have my asbestos suit on. Here goes.

Genesis tells us that he did it in 7 days. But I seem to remember another part of Holy Scripture that said that 'A 1,000 years are but a day in the sight of the Lord.'

Forgive me if I did not get that quote letter perfect.

How about a billion years? What if this Creator G-d exists outside of normal time and space as well as within it? How if he exists in an eternal Now that makes all of time meaningless?

Who is to say that Evolution is not his paintbrush?

Of course, even that thousand years can be considered largely symbolic, much like when Christ talked about forgiving your friend seven times seventy times (of course, he is not saying we must forgive our friend exactly 490 times), in that numbers like 7, 12, 70, 1000 signify certain things.

Not me, as you'll see from my posts. But my question...

"Where is the observation or evidence of random spontaneous mutagenic speciation?"

Is directed at those Evolutionists who pre-emptively deny your paintbrush analogy.
