Merv,

You beget an interesting question that has perhaps been dealt with before,
so pardon my ignorance if it has. How do the YECcchers deal with days
after number 7? Do they feel that Day 7 continues until today, in which
case YOM has a multiple meaning, obviating their argument on the Six
Literal Days. Or, there are days 8, 9, ..., n, ..., in which case YHWH
continues to interact with Creation.

Roger

P.S. The reification of allegory is easy to attack. YEC is a sad
apologetic.
