If you reject the literal interpretation of Genesis, then you have no reason to call the Bible an absolute authority on anything. Old earth advocates/devout evolutionists use science as a religion and have no problem here. It is the people who tout "theistic evolution" and the complete BS of "Intelligent Design" that frustrate and irritate me. How do you say the universe was designed then leave the who part a complete blank?
Children need to be fairly exposed to both viewpoints rather than be brainwashed in either camp. For the record, I am in the group that believes the earth is in the range suggested by Bishop James Ussher, and that the Genesis account is correct. The Bible is a very reliable source for dates and goes into exhausting detail with lifespans.
