I believe the Bible. Geologists believe in the religion of uniformitarianism, which states that processes that are slow in the present have always been slow. This is where they get millions of years. The history in the Bible has been over 95% proved by outside documents and archaeology. The dating of events has been confirmed the same way and with astronomical dating. The fact of God's existence is proved by life. All scientists agree that information is always created by a mind, never by random processes. DNA is information telling cells what, how, where, and when to produce chemicals. The only mind that could have existed before life is God.
So I see the earth being thousands of years old as fact, not theory.

So that's where we differed.
