I used to be part of the millions crowd, but after looking further into it, I joined the thousands crowd. What do you think?

There is no way to ever know how old the earth is. Pointless poll.

True.
But, estimates of at least how old it is can be made.

I personally would like to see people who voted "thousands" to express their estimation skills

I'd like to see you do the same. The likeliness of millions is as likely as the likeliness of thousands.

Here is one source on my reason for thinking the earth may only be thousands of years old: www.answersingenesis.org/articles/nab/could-god-have-created-in-six-daysLook at the section titled 'The "Days" of Genesis 1'. It explores the possibility of the six days of creation being, literally, six 24-hour periods due to the original meaning of the Hebrew word 'day' used in Genesis. If that pans out and you start following Adam's/Eve's and Cain's lineages throughout the Bible, I think the possibility of thousands makes sense (as they would have been created days after the start of creation).

I think he was referring more to scientific evidence for that estimation...
