And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, [it was] very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Gen 1:31 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Gen 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Gen 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Gen 2:4 ¶ These [are] the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens

From a Abrahamic religion viewpoint, it would be 6 days. In any of the thousands of other religions who knows, some don't even have their god(s) creating this one.
In reality, the earth is over 4 billion years old with the universe being around 13 billion.

No, the Earth wasn't created in a week. It formed over millions of years through the gravitational pull of dust and matter present in the early solar system.

Hello, Artsy:
It was created in six days and God rested on the seventh--that day was blessed and sanctified--set apart for holy purposes.
You may note that in Genesis 2:4 God calls that 6 day period 'the day', and that is the key to break the hidden Bible code. It has a special message and can be "cracked" at http://abiblecode.tripod.com
Shalom, peace in Jesus, Ben Yeshua

God's six-day creation project, yes, and later he created hell, where a hundred billion souls will writhe and scream in agony throughout eternity. Hold on, what was your question again?

People can't emagine it. They can emagine existance in life.
If it took lots of years to creat this master peice than don't you think God would also. God is eternal. Life was created ahead of our time. Dont you think it would evolve into a god. Would if life was trillions of years ago and double.

Of course not. It is just another creation myth. And it wasn't sneezed out the nose of the giant space goat or built for the amusement of Zeus and his fellows or (and so on...)

Neither. The Bible says 6, though, because resting is not working.
