Christians should get off of this peck about the Earth being created 6000 years ago. The Bible does not say that, it says "In the BEGINNING."

Jesus must have been wrong when speaking on Adam and Eve.

Mat 19:4-5
4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made [them] at the beginning made them male and female,
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

In case anyone wonders the passages Jesus is quoting:

Gen 1:27
27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

And:

Gen 2:24
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

For the intellectually honest, you will also note that Jesus added the qualifying words "at the beginning" to avoid any potential misrepresentation.

"Jesus must have been wrong when speaking on Adam and Eve."

Not at all.

There is no logic that dictates the the "beginning" of our human race was the same "beginning" of Gen 1:1.

It is sort of amazing to me how many people who chafe at the Godless doctrine of evolution will then turn their backs on any scripture that gives a perfect explanation for pre-Adamic man.
