> I did hear a very good point on this subject: the hebrew word for "day" (can't remember what it is at this particular moment) is the same as the word for "unit of time of indeterminate length." In other words, it's just the translation of the bible that is at fault, not the scientific vs theological dispite.

I wanted to say that too, but I couldn't think of any source which would confirm that, and didn't want to step out and make a fool of myself... Perhaps our resident Hebrew translator can help us out here?
