Anyone who believes in and follows the teachings of Christ is a Christian. The other nitty-gritty details do not matter.

First of all, I have zero idea how old the earth is.
Secondly, if a person does not believe the biblical account of creation, I would not say they are not a "real" Christian. I would say they are a person who, at this point in time, has not realized they can trust the bible as the inspired word of God. Unfortunately, many who call themselves Christians don't know this about the bible. But I'm not the judge of their hearts, if you know what I mean, when it comes to where they stand with God.

Yes I belive that. If you believe in elvolution, then you do not believe that God created the Earth, thus you are not a Christian. You cannot only believe part of the Bible, you have to believe ALL of it.

They may be real Christians. Just brainwashed to believe the evolution theory. Only God knows this for sure.

A Christian is anyone who follows Christ.
The question of evolution vs creation comes from Genesis which is a Jewish document, not a Christian one.

I cannot see how a Christian can say that GOD is incapable of the literal creation of the earth in 6 literal days.
GOD bless

I don't see why they would. Anyone who believes in and accepts Jesus is a Christian.

They are real Christians, but they are misguided. These more liberal Christians are dangerous because some of them teach that you do not have to be Christian to avoid Hell. The only way to avoid Hell is to be a Christian. They also have relaxed views when it comes to gays.

No. A Christian is a person who loves and follows Jesus Christ. A Christian who believes in evolution is just wrong in one area that I am not, and it stands to reason that I am also wrong in an area that he is not. No one has it all together. God knows this and loves us anyway.
