Since we're told creation was six, literal, 24-hour days by God in His word. I'll stick with that.

This impactor was in the same size class as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs.
Yet it didn't cause a major extinction event.
IMHO this is because the Chixulub impact was on shallow water. Imagine a 60 mile wide white hot crater with sea water pouring in from all sides! It's a recipe for steam cleaming a large portion of a planet...

I have read Genesis and nowhere did I read about 24 hours in a day or even God punching a timeclock!
I'll leave God's definition of days to Him. When you are eternal, hours probably get a little bit longer.

"So the evening and the morning were the first day."
The word used for DAY (yom) only ever means a literal 24 hour period. Every other place it's used to mean a literal day, no one ever questions.
They only question it in Genesis because they are trying to change God's word to fit the THEORIES of anti-God "scientists". Yet the evidence fits a literal six-day creation.
These people are like John Kerry, flip-flopping whenever it suits them.
And when You're eternal, an hour is still an hour. It's not relative. Although time has no meaning to an eternal God, the term still has meaning.

The entire universe was created at the instant you read the period at the end of this sentence.
You have been implanted with "memories" that make it seem like you and the rest of the universe existed before this time.
Just kidding, the universe will not be created until the next time you blink your eyes! < ;o{}

isn't a day from sun up to the next sun up. sun up to sun up depends on the rotation speed of the object.

They only question it in Genesis because they are trying to change God's word to fit the THEORIES of anti-God "scientists". Yet the evidence fits a literal six-day creation. You seem to assume that scientists working in geology, astronomy etc. are "anti-God." Do you have any basis for this claim?
If the Earth was created around 10,000 years ago, why would God place all this misleading evidence in the geological record that suggests a much older Earth?
And when You're eternal, an hour is still an hour. It's not relative. Although time has no meaning to an eternal God, the term still has meaning.
Time is relative. An hour for someone traveling at the speed of light is different from an hour for you and me.

"And when You're eternal, an hour is still an hour. It's not relative."Have you directed God about this?

Or maybe the Chixulub event did not wipe out the dinosaurs. This event is alledged to be bigger and yet did no or little damage on a plantary scale? hmmmm, something does not cumpute.

There is some indication that it triggered a major volcanic event - the centuries long basaltic flow that created the Deccan traps - enough lava flowed to pretty much cover India to a depth of a mile.
Lots of ash, dust, CO2 and sulfur dumped into the atmosphere. Major global warming and acid rain...

Also a "dry" vs "wet" strike. No planetary steam cleaning.

Since we're told creation was six, literal, 24-hour days by God in His word. Where exactly does it say that? One can infer such a thing, but I am quite certain that it says no such thing. ...And was that a Solar day, or a Sidereal day?
