I tried to make that statement as extreme as I could -- if you disagree, please explain. I want to try to understand the other point of view.

The Bible says that a day with the Lord is as a thousand years and a thousand years as a day. So when it says He created the world in 6 days, maybe it was really 6000 years. But honestly, He's God, if it says He created the world in 6 days, I believe He created the world in 6 days. One day, I will ask him.
Parts of evolution, such as natural selection/survival of the fittest, that makes sense. Adam lived to be 930 years old (Gen 5:5), so something obviously happned between the creation of man and now.
