How to make sand.

You know I rarely post on science threads so this might be a poor post.Okay here goes. Right, creationists obviously believe in a special creation event, a supernatural event. So they could simply believe that God created sand in an instant during creation week.So, if the creation of the Earth and everything on it is supernatural in their eyes, then surely there will not be the scientific evidence to support this event that mainstream science would expect to see evidence of. If science gives evidence that sand takes millions of years to form then isn't science using the wrong tools to detect an instant creation of sand?You guys appear to be coming at it with two different methods, one scientific and one theological.Is the problem that the creationists think they can provide acceptable scientific models to support their theology?Edited by Brian, : science sux lol

Hi Buz,I've asked this before and you may have missed it, but I would really liek an answer please.Why can't the creation days be 24 hours long?Cheers.

I only asked why the days cannot be 24 hours long because the text doesn't make a distinction, the same formula is used for each day.So why can't they have been 24 hours long, is there some evidence that forces you to reinterpret the text?You say something about god and science, if it is science that forces you to interpret the text, what are the scientific arguments, evidence, and date of the earth in your opinion?
