Does the Bible say the Earth was created in 6 days, 6000 years ago?

Why not, there is a lot of "far-fetched stuff" written 3000+ years ago and told over 4000-5000 years ago.

Great it shows that the Bishop could add.

I am making a general comment since this reply is to the entire topic.One problem, that I see, is that people are looking at Genesis through 21st Century eyes, not through the eyes of the writers or the audience he was writing for. If the writer writes "evening & morning were the first day, he meant day and his readers would have understood day, whether it meant 24 hour day or 24,000,000,000 year day. Trying to adapt Genesis to modern times is absurd. Reading it as it was written and understanding what humans would have believed 3000, 4000 or 5000 years ago, one should be able to understand what the writers were saying in terms of the writer's period rather than ours.

so the person who compiled the Genesis account got the order mixed up? The bible first verse should be Gen 2:4?
