Christians can justifiably differ on this point.

As a Christian, we can remain in the faith whether we side with the Christian or scientific age of the earth. I do not believe either contradicts the other. The Bible is not specific on the chronology of mankind, therefore also of the age of the earth. One can justify gaps in the biblcal chronology--I comment much more in detail in my book, <a href="http://enerpowerpress.com/ep_detail.php?sku=1893729540" rel="nofollow">"The Messiah and His Kingdom to Come: A Biblical Road Map."</a> I am in agreement with the statement that arguing about issues that have little to do with God’s plan for mankind is fruitless and unnecessary.
