I find the bible to be true as far as I know. I have yet to find fault with it. The bible never says that the earth is 6000 years old. People interpret Genesis 1 to be about material origins, but I find no evidence to support that.

The word for 'creation' = 'bara' ...which means 'organised'. The creation story is a theological representation of a temple with God at the centre (day 7). This is consistent with ancient texts of the time, which all deal with function rather than material origin. It tells us how things are set out and their purpose, rather than scientific fact.
