RE: Simple Question #2 - What is Life? Why does it exist at all?
There can be truth to both sides of the coin. The bible does state 6 days, but when you read it you need to understand that it is not just a written word - it is full of symbolism. Speak to various people that have studied theology and you will find that is the understanding of most people. So while the bible says the world was created in 6 days, it doesn't specify what a day is to Him. This means that 1 day in God's eyes could be 10,000 years in our time. The reason for 6 is because the number 7 is actually a very spiritual number and is referenced several times throughout the bible. :)
The people who came with that theory - did that because they don't want to believe in God, so anything they say is just to oppose the creation of the world by God. So both sides can't be true. Also Adam was created on the 6'th day, and you can see how much years he lived. It's 930 years and that's regular human years.
