Yes exactly 1 million.
Theistic Evolution -- Should Christians consider Evolutionary Creationism?
Sort:
Only God existed.
And the angels.
But what if the stars and things aren't really all that far away?
Time exists only to us. It doesn't exist for God.

Things would be dull without time.
How free is your will if you claim that the same God who created talking snakes saw your entire existence at the same time (since to him there is only one time)?

Ok perfect, so did the Milkyway galaxy exist, did stars exist, did matter exist, did energy exist. The time question isn't as important, what is important is if you think our universe existed or if 1million years ago was before "the beginning of time"

What he means is that God is eternal, unrestricted by time as it occurs here in our universe. As a Christian I would have to agree with that.

God and the angels existed, the angels were created some time before the earth. So, one million years ago only God existed. Because He had yet to create the earth.
10,000 years ago God probably already created the angels, but had yet to create the earth.

I can understand why the hypothetical being would have created some pets. It must have been mind-bogglingly boring.

This bit makes no sense, as if God is outside time, in a hypothetical time when there was only God, time would be entirely irrelevant.
To be frank, this whole discussion is as nonsensical as counting angels on pin heads.
We humans can't comprehe nd what was before God created the world.

Did matter, energy, space, galaxies, or stars exist 10,000 years ago?
No. Around 6000-7000 years ago God created everything. He had probably already created the angels, but nothing else.

He put huge effort into creating three mile thick stacks of sedimentary layers with cross-checked radiometric dates in sequential order from zero to over half a billion years to confuse intelligent people. Of course people who haven't a clue aren't subject to such confusion.
1 million years ago?
