The "Do you mean that man has only been on earth for 6,000 years?" argument is valid when many Biblical scholars believe that the Adam/Eve story represents (at best) the first "recorded" antics of man?.

I cannot understand the narrow minded views that would limit the method of life's journey from the onset to present day. Assuming an intelligence behind the process, who is to say what timetable or process was decided upon? Would the creator not be capable, for example, of starting the process and just seeing how it developed? And, if the creation process is so perfect, explain the existence of the appendix or other unnecessary parts? How any rational person can exclude one possibility for another without factual data is a foreign concept to me.

I have no problem believing that I cannot read the mind or purposes of a creator since, in comparison, I would be as ignorant as an ant is of a human's motives, probably even moreso.

I take no sides. Is there a creator? That is a personal matter. Is it possible there is a creator? Absolutely. Nothing is truly impossible in a universe of apparently contradictory events.
