Nowhere in Genesis does it describe the earth as being 6000 years old.
Well technically you may be correct. The world is actually 5,776 years old because the ethnocentric Middle Eastern Jewish religious fairytale says that is how old the Earth is. As a believer in the fairy tale you should believe that, shouldn't you?
"How does one count years?
Years are counted since the creation of the world, which is assumed to have taken place in the autumn of 3760 B.C.E. In that year, after less than a week belonging to AM 1, AM 2 started (AM = Anno Mundi = year of the world).
In the year C.E. 2006 we witnessed the start of Hebrew year AM 5767."
