"Actually, you're wrong there. Time is made up by humans."
Well that's a whole discussion in itself isn't it.
Are you saying that without a human there to say "hey this revolution of the Earth is called a 'day'" then the Earth never actually span around the sun at all? C'mon, you know what I mean.
"The point is, God creates existence and Earth, then he instantly places humans and the nowaday animals on Earth. We all know there were other animals before the ones that exist now, so that part in the Bible is total bullcrap."
Millions of intelligent people believe in that. If it was incontrovertible proof, then it would be seen in the same light as people who believe the Earth is flat.
Here's one simple way of explaining it if you believe Creation (there's others of course) :
God created trees and animals. He didn't create spores, seeds, bacteria or whatever, but fully grown trees and creatures. If you cut one of those trees down you could count the rings in the trunk... In the same way, perhaps He created dinosaur skeletons inside the earth and made them seem older than they really are?
Call it fiction if you like, but it's nowhere near as straightforward as you seem to think.
