Re: When God said day did he mean an actual 24hour day?
I don't say "24 hour day", in that the convential scientific wisdom is that the Earth's rotation rate in slowing, and a solar day has gotten shorter down through time.
​
Uh, oops. if the rotation is slowing the day is longer.
​
And it is by the way. If my memory is right the day is a small number of hours longer than when the dinosaurs lived.
