If it runs counter to what my beliefs are, I'd assume he was mistaken, but it would certainly put some kind of perspective on how my God went about things.
I am not the type of Christian who forces the issue on others, but I find debates of Christian canon interesting if trite, and all too often tantamount to trolling. I really don't assume to know how we got here, and whether the universe as we know it was actually wrought from nothing over the course of 168 Earth hours, or whether it was "steered" by some higher power over trillions of years is not something that matters too much to me. Therefore, the mechanical minutiae of said creation matters even less.
The fact is that we are here, and that's a mysterious and wonderful thing!
