I agree with Aaron, life on Earth is estimated to have begun between 4 and 4.2 billion years ago, with simple proteins forming the first single celled organisms.

Plant life since the 3rd day, bird and fish life since the 5th day and land life since the 6th day.
All about 6000 years ago.
Those that think life arose millions of years ago should consider that their answer is (also) a philosphical one.
Noone was around - except God, and he has given us an eye-witness account. Since when did it become scientific to discount such evidence?
The idea that the universe and life has been around for millions of years is based on philopshical (religious) assumptions.
Don't be fooled into thinking that evolution and millions of years is a proven fact. It is *one* interpretation of the observed evidence - and not a very good one if you take a good look.
In my opinion - having looked at a good deal of evidence - the creation interpretation is a much better scientific explanation.
As well as being the account of the Creator himself.
For example, look here to see that most dating methods indicate the earth is young - contrary to popular evolutionary belief.

As shown on NGC (National Geographic Channel) The Dinosaur was present before 6 Billion Years back, You can add 2 Billion Years to it.

sun is approx 5 billion (10^9) years. earth, around 4.5 when its coalesced. you're looking at around another 1.5-2 billion years giving an estimate of2.5-3 billion years before the sh it hit the fan.

simple cellular organisms evolved from the chemical reactions between water, hydrogen, carbon compounds such as carbon dioxide, and nitrogen containing compounds such as ammonia around 4 billion years ago.

Around 3.8 billion years.

It is theorized that simple cells first popped into existence approximately four billion years ago.

I'm going to guess about 4.5 million years. We're including all life not just sentient and intelligent, right?
