Earth is 7 days old by the time all of creation
Then 6000yrs of civilisations until now
That's how they came up with the number

I know how they came up with it. But the term day doesn't only mean 24 hours and the 6000 year calculation doesn't hold up because there is unaccounted for time in the creation account and the genealogies are not all exhaustive. If the bible doesn't explicitly say it, we are only speculating.

Look up the Genesis code, it's a theory that uses quantum physics to hold true to an old Earth, and stay true to the bible
-
I've actually seen that, it's pretty good. I really don't hold any position on that account because I don't like speculating on something that the bible doesn't outright say. But yeah, I've studied a bunch of theories on the subject.
-
True, I've seen two very likely theories both of which I want to believe
-
Yeah, it's a very interesting study.
