six days

For those of you that believe that God created the world:

Do you think He created the earth and everything on it in the space of six literal days or that God had some other method for creation and the six days as stated in the Bible is purely figurative? I have done a fair amount of research on this and while it is not a critical part of Christianity as it is difficult to prove absolutely, I'm interested in some reasons why people believe what they do.

I'll give my opinion after some other people respond because if you haven't really thought about it I'd prefer to keep your opinion impartial.

p.s. -- If you don't believe God created the world at all then please start another post because I don't really want to start that debate here. Thanks!
