We know very little about the origin of life on the Earth…how it happened, what kind of environment it might have happened in, and how long it look to go from the origin to the last common ancestor of life as we know it - a very complex organism very much like modern life," Blank said

Refreshing to hear scientists admit that they know very little about how life started and how long it took to get where we are today!

But you'll note they are not anywhere near to claiming it's only 6,000 years old. 5.7 billion... 5.9 billion... that's a scientific debate. 6,000... that's a joke.
