Do you think humans are kinda new?

Man animals, etc were all created in one week about 6000+ years ago

Man generally behaves quite badly then, a lot of war and misery, but do you think all races that are quite new have a certain time during which they develop? Thinking about cats for example, they have a, not a mechanism, but a way of always being themselves, or kind, you see it in them, so I assume that animals and plants have been here much longer than with the they are more developed, do you think animals and plants are just patient with us until we are developed, or do God have another plan?

Cats, dogs and humans were all created on the same day according to Gen 1. None of them have much of an age-leap ahead of the other.

Plants were created 3 days before humans, dogs and cats according to the Bible. And one day before the Sun and moon according to that same Genesis 1 chapter.

Ok, whether you believe the Genesis 1 acciount is literal (the earth is a little over 6000 years old, or metaphorical (the earth is 4.6 billion years old, but the Bible used "day" because they could understand that) modern mankind is a recent development. In Genesis, humans are the last thing created, and even with evolution we are basically one of the last life forms, being here less than 1 million years.

In terms of the long history of life on this planet, we are pretty new. Anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens sapiens) have only been on this planet for about ~100,000 years.

I don't think plants and other animals are being "patient" with us, I think that is attributing something to them that doesn't make any sense.

God, on the other hand, is very patient--which is why He is graciously at work to redeem and reconcile us to Himself through the Gospel, that we might be saved, healed, and restored to communion with God through Jesus Christ. It is why, though creation now groans and longs for the Day God will restore and renew all things, God is patiently and lovingly working to bring us to Himself. The Day will come, at a time no one knows, when Jesus will return to judge, there will be a resurrection of the dead, and God will make all things new. But until that Day, this is the world we live, and God is giving Himself to us through the Gospel, that we might know Him through His Son, and through His Son have forgiveness, new life, and peace with God--in which we are then called to be imitators of Christ, and as Christ so loved us, love others in return.
