Latter-day Saints (Mormon); Christian
Not all of the stories in the bible are meant to be taken literally; specifically pertaining to the Old Testament. A lot of the stories are analogies, and the meaning it presents is what's important. I mean, do you seriously think the earth is only about 6 thousand years old?? According to the bible, one would think this is what is says (4 thousand years before Christ when Adam and Eve were present on earth, and another 2 thousand since). But, each creation period was not given any specific time; each one could have taken millions, if not billions of years, according to our time scale. So, to say the bible is false, when scientifically scrutinized, doesn't hold water. The earth more than likely is like what science predicts ~ 5 billion yrs old.
