And then there's Exodus, which says straight out that God made the world in six days. There is no other way to interpret it.
As for emotion, there is plenty of that to go around on all sides.

(Psalm 73)

Eden simply cannot be the best of all possible worlds for the simple fact that Adam was able to sin. In the Eschaton redeemed man will not sin; he will be perfected in union with Christ. Genesis presents a world that must develop into something fuller and greater. Adam does not represent the height of humanity; he represents the potential of humanity, and that potential diverted into sin. Christ is the height of humanity; only in Him is man able to reach true perfection and glory.

This version of the old-earth idea sounds a lot like Mormons who don't believe The Fall was a bad thing(tm).
