A fine summary of a more middle ground perspective. Many of the evolution side of this discussion probably have this viewpoint.
The debate, however, gets polarized into the creationist perspective of (Godless) evolution versus Godly creation. The extreme of this creationionist perspective is that of the "Young Earthers".
I have noticed, in my browsings of Terry's "Talk Origins" site, that "Young Age" seems to have become a more preferred term, to replace "Young Earth".
