The 13 or 15 billions of years is too big of a number for humans to grasp.
I think people of science should come up with a different measurment for so large time intervals.\
Plus it would be just an approximate number which could be wrong by a few 100000 thousands of years.

About 6000 years. That's what my preacher told me, and he knows God personally.
