God's seventh day?

Imagine if God had worked a seven day week?

Would he have fixed the foreseen flaw in man?

Pretty big "IF." But the answer would be no! Since he made everything perfect in six days. It wasn't an imperfection in man. it was man and womans failure to communicate. God told Adam, Adam told Eve half of the story. She is a part of me, she should have read my mind! Sound familar?
Built into the fabric of humanity was the ability to get back to that "Image of God" status.
The "Heat" is on, when the raw material gets hot enough all the impurities are burned off. The "SilverSmith" watches his hot metal when he see's his "Image' in the Silver, he pours out an ingot of pure Silver.

That, actually is a misconception.........
http://www.answersingenesis.org/home/area/faq/docs/day_thousandyears.asp
Question: Doesn’t 2 Peter 3:8 indicate that the days of creation might not be literal, but thousands of years long?
Answer: 2 Peter 3:8–9 reads:
‘But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.’
The first thing to note that the context has nothing to do with the days of creation. Also, it is not defining a day because it doesn’t say ‘a day is a thousand years’. The correct understanding is derived from the context — the Apostle Peter’s readers should not lose heart because God seems slow at fulfilling His promises because He is patient, and also because He is not bound by time as we are.

The text says ‘one day is like [or as] a thousand years’ — the word ‘like’ (or ‘as’) shows that it is a figure of speech, called a simile, to teach that God is outside of time (because He is the Creator of time itself). In fact, the figure of speech is so effective in its intended aim precisely because the day is literal and contrasts so vividly with 1000 years — to the eternal Creator of time, a short period of time and a long period of time may as well be the same.
The fact that the passage is actually contrasting a short and long period can be shown by the fact that Peter is quoting Psalm 90:4 (Peter’s statement ‘do not forget’ implies that his readers were expected to recall something, and this passage has this very teaching). This reads:

‘For a thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.’

what flaw?
the ability to choose?
to think?
to imagine?
you're question seems to imply that God messed up on us somehow.

FOA

On the Eighth Day, God saw that man could not endure the bitterness of his existance, so He created chocolate.
