What is the intelligence in designing an earth that is having fewer & fewer days per year?

In certain modern corals and shellfish, we find growth-bands that indicate yearly, monthly, and even daily growth, rather like the annual rings that trees produce. By counting these bands, we can determine how long a particular coral or shellfish lived just as we can for a tree by counting its rings. We can also see that there are about thirty daily bands per month and about 365 daily bands per year for modern corals and shellfish. But careful analysis of the growth-bands of fossil corals and shellfish from the Devonian and Pennsylvanian has confirmed that years in these periods contained more days than years do now,

    The fact of the matter is, the periods of days where always the same, 7days a week because God created the earth in 6 days an on the 7th day he rested, so time has not changed only man has changed it, by learning the truth from the bible, im just paraphrasing it.

    Well, that would generally indicate time's running out. So maybe Jesus IS going to hash it out with Anti-Christ. I just have the sinking suspicion we'll have all killed each other by then...

    Astronomically, you could argue this has something to do with our ellipse being altered, which would be the only thing to affect the length of years. Whatever the hell would do that is beyond me.
