D&C 77:6 says the Earth has existed for 7000 years. I suspect there is a divide in the church based on this revelation from JS. It is obvious from science this is not true.
I think you are right. I think 10-30% of most wards know Genesis is either metaphor or BS.
I’ll bet 40-60% BYU faculty also knows this. I’m guessing 10-30% of GA’s also know this.

Why did JS marry so many wives who were already married?
Why did Oliver Cowdery get excommunicated because he believed JS affair with Fanny Alger was adultery?
Why did BY marry Zina Huntington after JS died even though her husband was on a mission?
Why did JS coerce young girls to marry him?
Why did he marry so many wives behind Emma's back?

Why was there racism in the Book of Mormon, Book of Abraham etc?
Why was BY so racist?
Why does the church now disavow these racist teachings?
Why did the church finally allow blacks to have the priesthood in 1978?
