All your argument does here is attempt to impute and reduce the paleontological, archeological, historical and literary issues in which the Bible is enmeshed down to a false dichotomy. The issues are actually on a spectrum or degree of academic measures and considerations, but it is those who insist on an conceptual
a priori "either/or" approach when evaluating each and every sentence of the Bible who confuse the issues and argue that if the bible can't be seen to be literal history through and through, it opens the slippery slope and means we should toss the bible into the trashbin of what is thought of as the useless and outmoded past.
This sort of conclusion, whether it's proffered by Christians or by Atheists, is patently false and hinges on assumptions about what terms like "literal" and "truth" have to mean, assumptions which don't by any necessity carry the concrete denotations that are claimed or that are easily or measurably born out hermeneutically or historically.
So what am I saying, exactly? I'm saying that just because the Bible may not have a syllable by syllable correspondence to the reality claims which different people may make for the past, this state of affairs doesn't automatically imply that the Biblical books and letters have no substantive representational meaning reflective of the past or that they're automatically not prophetic in nature, or that if they're not "proven," then God "obviously didn't have anything to do with it."
People need to get out of their conceptual and emotionally self-imposed epistemological expectations about what and how "truth" of any kind has to manifest itself, whether in the religious sphere or in the historic or scientific, and realize these things have to be wrestled with and not all too easily canned and vacuum sealed by
a priori dichotomies of personal expectation.
And what are some of the issues with the expectation of a 6,000 year old Creation? For my part, I'd use the following statements in the video below by Phil Vischer of the Holy Post podcast as a compass for where to go next:
Does the Bible Say the Earth is 6000 Years Old?
