Exactly! A Christian with perfect scientific credentials who teaches that the earth is 7 billion years old and that the universe has a definite design. Thanks for the support!

Yet another non-biologist who's clueless about evolution.

But let's play along with this Hugh Ross guy. This is taken straight from the wikipedia page that was linked:

Ross's explanation of Genesis 1 is:

"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep." (Earth's early atmosphere blocked the sunlight.)
Day one: "Let there be light." (As the atmosphere changed, the Sun's light began to shine through.)
Day two: God separates the waters above from the waters below. (The evaporation and rain cycle began.)
Day three: Dry land appears, then plants appear. (Land rose from the ocean, then plants appeared.)
Day four: Sun, moon, and stars appear. (The changing atmosphere finally reveals the Sun, moon, and stars.)
Day five: Sea creatures (up to and including sea mammals), then birds appear.
Day six: Animals (Ross says these are land mammals), then humans appear.

So let me get this straight, the Sun's light appears on day 1, but the Sun itself only appears on day 4? LOL nonsense.

Plants appear on day 3 (before the Sun!!!), but sea animals appear on day 5? This is once again BS. Sea animals are much older than land plants.

Also, "sea mammals" appear before "land mammals"? More BS. Ceteceans and pinipeds are relatively recent evolutionary clades. Mammals evolved on land, and some groups returned to the sea later on.
