Although The Bible does not specifically say when Adam and Eve and everything else were created by God, various men have calculated backwards from known dates, and have calculated it to be 4004BC [Ussher] to 5760BC [Setterfield], that is, from 6000 to 8000 years ago. There's a big difference between that, compared with roughly a quarter of a million years according to evolutionary theory if you leave God out: and that varies according to different science books! People must decide which side of the fence they are going to jump to.

It must be understood that the Biblical times of thousands of years and evolutionary times of millions of years are not mutually-exclusive, but is simply Time dated using two different methods or measuring sticks.

Biblical -using ASTRONOMICAL time (time for earth to complete an orbit around the Sun.. (Sometimes called ORBITAL time)

Evolutionary -using ATOMIC time (time to complete so many oscillations of a particular atom.

For example, 1 second is for 9,192,631,770 oscillations of a a cesium-133 atom. )

Both measure the same thing using different measuring-sticks, so although the results appear completely different they are actually the same.

For example, 4004 years BC ASTRONOMICALLY equates to 14 Billion Years ATOMICALLY

The Bible states that it was about six thousand years ago that GOD made us and all! Only a couple of days after GOD made Earth, did GOD add us onto Earth!
