The only natural measurement that equals that of the day/night cycle in [[Genesis]] is determined by the earth's rotation speed. So for a Yom to mean a million years would mean that the change from light to darkness would take that long. We know this not to be the case as scientific observation can conclude. | It is clear in the [[Genesis]] writing that it was the separation of light and darkness that created a Yom.

If in fact a million years equalled one day it would mean the earth's rotation would have been to slow to support life. [[Earth]] or any planet that rotates that slow would have burned up on one side, and frozen on the other. | If in fact a million years equalled one day it would mean the earth's rotation would have been to slow to support life.
