Lol, I'm sorry for the misleading title and anyone who's been following my posts knows I put absolutely no stock in the in historical accuracy of the bible. But... with a very liberal reinterpretation of Genesis and if I take into account some of the ignorance of the people who wrote it I think you'll find what follows very interesting 
.
Okay, so there's genesis 1. Now taking into account for a moment that we can't take any of this literally and we even have to reword and and even reorder much of this, it isn't actually that far off. Allow me to demonstrate...
Okay, now remember to throw out the whole six day thing, reorder accordingly and you're good. Notice I didn't delete anything... it's just out of order, and some things needed to be interpreted different or explained deeper... but that doesn't mean it's necessarily "wrong".
People have been interpreting the bible for thousands of years and even taking votes on it's contents. Now, you may still interpret it literally, as long as you know it's in the wrong order slightly and that this whole process took billions and billions and billions of years... not days. Otherwise, it actually is fairly accurate.

(NIV) Genesis 1 said:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. (This is post Big Bang and includes the stars)
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
Okay, here's where it gets interesting. That, is a Pre-Solar nebula in the middle of a massive Molecular Cloud. The particles surrounding it (the cloud part) will eventually become planets and that includes our Earth. So at this point the Earth is without form. Now there is no surface of the water and it's obvious that the author meant "Water" like in the ocean. Now one could easily interpret the "Deep" as space, but space is still not full of water... or is it? No, not in the sense that the author meant, but the three most common elements in the universe are Hydrogen, Helium and Oxygen. Hydrogen and Helium are needed for fusion to make stars. This is elementary but Hydrogen and Oxygen make water. Introduce Hydrogen into any Oxygen rich environment and the first thing it wants to do is bond to the Oxygen. Hydrogen is a very sentimental element, it likes bonding
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. (You may attribute this to the moment Hydrogen fusion begins in our sun)
4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. (and here's why, we're talking about the light that will be used to gauge night and day, not all light)
5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day. (Well, actually WE called the light day and the darkness night, but that comes later. As for now we will eventually use this light to determine the passage of days so we can let that one go.)
6 And God said, “Let there be a vault (Raqia/Fermerment) between the waters to separate water from water.” (This could be considered the point when the earth formed the magnetic field which would help to shield us from the deadly solar rays.)
7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. (There is no above and below but the particles that make it in from the sun accumulate at the north and south poles of the planet resulting in the North and South Auroras so, these could be considered the top and bottom of our planet)
8 God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day. (Again, we called it sky, but it's really our atmosphere and here we can just call it Earth's Gravitational Field)
9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. (Even meteors are made partially of water and as it turns out Jupiter's Gravitational Field is so great that it effects everything that comes near it, and that means meteors from the Asteroid belt. And being that it was more crowded back in the day, that would have caused a period of "Heavy Bombardment" on Earth. The water released from the inbound astral bodies of all kinds would have accumulated but due to the Earth's extreme temperature at the time it wouldn't have created oceans yet. The combination of water accumulation and high temperature of the planet would have made it rain, world wide, on end for millions of years until the planet cooled enough to form bodies of water, and eventually oceans. As for the dry land, nothing on the surface of the planet was like what we know today and the Granite that makes up the continents wasn't around at all. So when the granite began to create land masses this is the "dry land" that we eventually come to familiarize ourselves with.
10 God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good. (see above)
10.5 And god created Life and said let the life evolve and it did, and let the life create after it's own kind and it was so. (which is why things can't evolve into different kinds lol. Evolution is decent with modification, so everything that ever evolved is nothing more than a modified version of what ever came before, and because of that it's still part of the same family... as in... after it's own kind? I'm not really adding anything here because it says God created life, I just generalized "Life". When god created life he also created Evolution and as things evolve the separate into different "Kinds" but are always after their own "Kind".)
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce (evolve) vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. (This has to move down... after 22, somewhere around 25.)
12 The land produced (evolved) vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. (move this with 11)
13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, (well since stars have already been created this must be out of order... move this up to between 1 and 2... that should be about right)
15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. (this one too, right after the last one)
16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. (These should be separated, the creation of the sun should appear right before "Let there be Light". The creation of the Moon is quite a different event altogether. We think a mass about the size of Mars which we call "Thea" sort of "Glanced" into the earth and because both were so hot they were molten a great deal of matter sort of "Gloopped" into space and began to orbit the Earth. As time went on that matter would condense into our Moon. This event should be moved up, before the formation of the oceans.)
17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth,
18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. (move 17 and 18 with the Moon event)
19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.”
21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. (This is all Evolution now, and obviously in the wrong order, the ocean creatures should be moved to after the creation of Oceans... but otherwise it's pretty close (remember to leave out the mention of specific things like Whales) the birds event must move down after 25 because Dinosaurs evolved into Birds.)
22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.” (separate and move accordingly)
23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.
24 And God said, “Let the land produce (evolve) living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so.
25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. (But not separate until they separate from each other via evolution)
26 Then God said, “Let us (Evolve) make (Hominid Kind) mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.
30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
Okay, now remember to throw out the whole six day thing, reorder accordingly and you're good. Notice I didn't delete anything... it's just out of order, and some things needed to be interpreted different or explained deeper... but that doesn't mean it's necessarily "wrong".
People have been interpreting the bible for thousands of years and even taking votes on it's contents.
