In the beginning was nothing. Then God created light. There was still
nothing but you could see better.

How could a "literal day" possibly exist before God
created the Sun on the 4th "day"???

He created light on the first day.

That may be, but a 24 hour day, i.e. sunrise to
sunrise, was impossible without the sun which was
created on the 4th day.

Let's review:
Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Gen 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness
[was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved
upon the face of the waters.
Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Gen 1:4 And God saw the light, that [it was] good: and God
divided the light from the darkness.
Gen 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called
Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

Notice in Gen 1:4 that God divided the light from the darkness?
Thus the first day. Without the sun. Don't ask me how.
But, the sun is not the only thing in the universe that creates
light. Nor does it create the only type of light. Fireflys
for instance create a bioluminecense (sp?) type of light.
So the sun is not needed to create light. Nor is the first day
defined in terms of the motion of the sun.


Actually, The Bible says that 1000 years in the
life of man is like one day to God. So why can't
2 billion years just as easily be like one day to
God?

The sun was indeed created about 8 billion years
after the Big Bang. 8 billion years divided by
"4 days" is indeed 2 billion years.

OK, that's a reasonable theory.
We could ask Him when we get the chance.

Now: When God said "Let there be Light", What type
of antenna was he using?
