Jews believe, like Christians, that humans were created by God on the 'Sixth Day' of Creation. Estimates place Creation at a little over 6000 years ago. However, this is widely contested, as evidence shows that humans existed before this time. Furthermore, other evidence shows that humans were not created, but evolved from Simians. Other evidence shows that the Earth is not the centre of the universe, contesting the idea that God made us special. Even still, the age of the Earth is estimated at 5.5 billion years, not 6000. Then consider that the universe is estimated at 14 billion years old, again a little beyond the 6000 estimate.
Therefore, the fact that humans were made at all is hugely contested. Jews may accept these 'facts', but many will still choose to believe that humans were created a little over 6000 years ago by God.
