God made all of Creation in six days, but he made it look 5 billion years old. There, that satisfies all rational people. Argument settled. Go home.

There are two possibilities. 1) God made the world in 6 days, but put lots of stuff in it to make it look very much older.

2) God made the world in 4 billion years featuring a neat invention we call "Evolution", but some peoples interpretation of the Bible is wrong.

Since no two denominations can agree on the meaning of the important parts of the Bible, I prefer to think that #2 is the correct answer. I just don't think God plays practical jokes like making the world old just to mess with us.
