Look...THE BIBLE! DOES NOT SAY THE EARTH IS 6000 YEARS OLD ...PERIOD...so do not claim that as a biblical point..the 6000 years is one mans weak interpretation..if you want to accept that interpretation fine..but if I do not im not doubting God or the Bible..im doubting a fallible man
Yes, the Bible does, through its genealogies, say that the Earth is 6000 years old.
Agreed.
There's lots of things getting mixed up here.
1) Age is not the issue in the debate between creationism versus Darwinism.
2) Although off the point of the discussion, the age of the earth (Genesis 1:1) is not necessarily the same thing as the age of what God did after the earth already existed and was covered with water and darkness (Genesis 1:2-2:25).
3) Although the earth already existed in Genesis 1:2 and we don't know how old it is, there is a scriptural and reasonable way to trace about 6000 years from Adam to the present.
