But God refers to LITERAL days, as has been demonstrated. Figurative "days" only come from OUTSIDE the Bible in terms of Creation.

I'll just have to agree that you're wrong on this point. Hopefully you will open your eyes to the truth. Jesus taught Genesis as accurate and literal -- I see no reason for us to create some fanciful explanation when the explanation God provides is perfect and fits all the evidence. There is NO evidence supporting old earth ideas -- there are only theories that first reject Christianity and then create a "logical" timeline.

You clearly need more study.
