Well, it is in English. And in the OT, the Hebrew word "nahash" is used, which means snake. So I don't know what you think a serpent is.
Depends on who the judge is. If the judge is a christian moron....maybe... But if someone born without eyeballs was brought in to be an eyewitness to a murder, and you used the argument that perhaps he actually did see the murder because he magically grew eyeballs right before the murder then had them disappear again, I don't think you'd convince a judge or jury of that.
Just having some fun... But anyway... http://plancksconstant.org/blog1/2011/06/the_difference_between_snakes_and_serpents.html All this said, if God were to let Satan speak from a snake's mouth, then it would happen. Shoot, He made a donkey speak, too!
Maybe the judge isn't a space fan. He only reads about law. A good lawyer might convince him that the Earth goes around the Sun one-millionth as fast as it used to. So 6000 of today's years cover 6 billion of the Genesis years. Could today's money be worth one-millionth of Genesis dollars? So I'm working for $6 billion? Or .6 cents. Sly, there will be a test on this later.
God has magic, you see. He can make the earth go around the sun as fast as he wants to. Prove he can't. Pay the man his $10,000.
The funny thing about this comment of yours is you label all Christians as morons, yet I bet a million bucks that I can't find millions of Christians smarter than you. What does that make you? A slug? Lol
Absolutely. I will need to see the money up front. There is no sense betting a person with low capital.

^^^ You know, all I was doing was saying what the guy making the bet/offer would do. I think you can prove science's version is as correct as we can know, but you cannot prove that it didn't happen exactly as in Genesis. There's zero evidence it did happen as in Genesis, but proving the negative (it didn't happen) is difficult at best, impossible likely.
Again: 1) The man's challenge is to prove it to a judge, not to a logician or mathematician. The standards are, whatever you can get the judge to believe. It's done this way daily in thousands of courts. 2): It's easy to prove this negative. The goal is not to prove that Genesis is 100% false. Just prove that one tiny detail is unbelievable, and you prove that Genesis isn't 100% true.
