Keep in mind that the Bible never says how old the Earth is.

The Bible says that God created the earth in 6 days and on the 7th he rested. Are we to believe that God's days were only 24 hour periods? I doubt it.

The Bible says that God created the earth in 6 days and on the 7th he rested.
And? What bearing does that have on...Keep in mind that the Bible never says how old the Earth is...?
Are we to believe that God's days were only 24 hour periods?
Since the Bible is either literal or figurative I would say that we are to take the days mentioned as literal days, not figurative.
I doubt it.
Go ahead, Thomas. If you choose to doubt it then that is your choice. Free will and all...
