“Science is presenting us an opportunity to explore wonder.” 19:45 “When Jesus commands us to care for the least of these, I hope we’re considering the impact our fossil-fuel economy will have on the poor.” 21:20 (22:19) “Let’s let our light shine and let the world know that Latter-day Saints care about God’s creations.” 26:01 ~ George Handley ~
Here's the problem I see with LDS believing in Old Earth-style theories: They have to then disregard D&C 77, because the chapter implies the Earth is really 7,000 years old.

I think the 7000 years, or so, is considered to be symbolic. It’s not taken literally. Anyways, that’s what I think.
