With all we know today, it seems obvious that the world is much older than the Bible writers thought it was. In justifying the Bible, many people look at the six days of creation as much longer times, still representative of God's plan expressed figuratively in Genesis. It boils down to whether or not you believe in literal interpretation of the Bible. I believe it contains a heap of truth, but don't think God told them exactly what to write.
