Ultimately, the age of the earth cannot be proven. Whether 6,000 years or 4.6 billion years – both viewpoints (and everything in between) rests on faith and assumptions. Those who hold to 4.6 billion years trust that methods such as radiometric dating are reliable, and that nothing has occurred in history that may have disrupted the normal decay of radio-isotopes. Those who hold to 6,000 years trust that the Bible is true, and that other factors explain the “apparent” age of the earth, such as the global flood, or God creating the universe in a state that “appears” to give it an very long age. As an example, God created Adam and Eve as fully-grown adult human beings. If a doctor were to have examined Adam and Eve on the day of their creation, the doctor would have estimated their age at 20 years (or whatever age they appeared to be) - when, in fact, Adam and Eve were less than one day old. Whatever the case, there is always good reason to trust the Word of God over the words of atheistic scientists with an evolutionary agenda.

i think that God created the heavens and the earth. i do no longer believe in the unprovable hypothosis of evolution. I refuse to believe that guy replaced into is an evolution of an ape. i do no longer believe that the international replaced into created by making use of twist of destiny . It takes extra faith to believe that the universe is the end results of a cosmic twist of destiny, That something got here from no longer something, the earth got here into being by making use of dirt debris that only take place to discover the extraordinary place around the extraordinary style of celebrity and then spontaneously produced out of no longer something an environment that ought to assist life then spontaineously from unlife got here life, back something from no longer something, then for some reason this proper life variety for its international desperate to commence mutating into differant life kinds (why no longer 'evolve' in direction of a typical objective, some into flora some into animals and a few for no obvious reason only stayed the way they have been. the possibilities of every person of those activities certainly occurring is 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000... to a million or a million in 10 to the 40th potential. that's variety of a twister hitting a junkyard and a completely operational 747 being the end result. To believe in that extremely takes extra faith than i'm able to muster. So i think that God Created all issues.

God created the earth billions of years ago. Yes dinosaurs existed. Humans (the ones God created) were created 5,000 to 6,000 years ago.
Yes, we have evolved. We are still evolving.
God cast the devil to the earth. The devil was/is a smart being. He knew/knows how to create life. It is my opinion that he created dinosaurs and the earliest man type humans.
These things were eventually killed off before God put his version of humans on the earth.

God created everything and while He could have done it all in an instant, He chose to do it over a period of time. His ways and wisdom are far above those of mankind but He promises that some day when we are in eternity with Him, we will understand. That's good enough for me!

The Bible says God created heavens, the earth and the causes, or maters of evolution, in; "THE BEGINNING", If you can date the beginning go ahead.

Something started the evolution of the earth. People call it different things, I happen to call it god.

I do not believe the earth was intentionally created. The earth came about by happenstance of the universe and there is not a complete empirical explanation as to why; and I'm perfectly fine not knowing.
Yes I believe evolution to be the best scientific explanation as to why things have occurred such as they have.

There is no god.
Please understand that simple but irrefutable fact.
Also, evolution is a fact. It does not require belief. Only those things that do not exist in the real world require belief. Like god for example, and creationism. Neither have any evidence to support them, so belief is required.
EDIT;
Rufiboy is a perfect christian; Science and reality hold no interest for me, only mythology and imaginary sky-pixies.
You have my pity rufiboy, you really do.
