Before there was water on earth, was there day and night

I mean, the Atmosphere is what gives us Day and Night... Without it, there was just a sun in the sky in the "day"...

Was there any Atmosphere in Earth that made Day or it was Darker before It had water? What I mean by water is the Oceans...

What does science say?

Rotation gives you day or night idiot.

First: Science says that it is day on the side of the earth that faces the sun and night on the other side. It has nothing to do with whether the Earth has an atmosphere.

Second: There was never a time when the Earth did not have an atmosphere. It has always been enveloped by a layer of gases.

Third: Oceans have nothing to do with day and night either. Before there was a massive amount of liquid water on the Earth (billions of years ago) there was a massive amount of steam in the atmosphere. And there was still day and night, although under that amount of gaseous water, it would have been hard to tell. But higher up above most of the water, it would have been apparent whether it was day or night, if anybody were around to observe whether the sun was up.

No, atmosphere is not what gives us day and night - the rotation of the earth gives day and night and the earth has always rotated - faster in the past and it is gradually slowing down.
The moon has no atmosphere and has day and night - each two weeks long.

Dude......the atmosphere doesn't give us day and night, the earth revolving on its axis and one side facing away from the sun does. So....since we've been rotating,.....we've had day and night.

Yes, as long as the earth spins on it's axis there will be day and night. Water has nothing to do with it.

yes it was in the book of genesis
