The whole point is that the stories in the bible have nothing to do with the creator of ALL THAT IS. But...that's a whole other thread.

Agree, the 1701-Refit is stated as "almost twenty years old". Although, it is still involves rounding up since it is only about a dozen years old.
Morrow is from a colony on Venus. 12 Earth years is approximately 20 Venusian years...
I'm sure the line was a reference to the age of the ship based on the show starting 1966 and the film being released in 1982. Which of course discounts the age of the ship as established in the Cage,making the ship over 30! Unless the ship seen in the Cage is not the same Enterprise we see in TOS.Agree, the 1701-Refit is stated as "almost twenty years old".

Which might account for certain differences! 
But that makes no sense. Why would he go by out-of-universe time counts (we know they don't convert to Star Trek time)?
How do you know he is from a colony on Venus?Morrow is from a colony on Venus. 12 Earth years is approximately 20 Venusian years...
Not for me. If you need help, just ask. I might even say yes (mind blown).
@PhaserLightShow
Mediocre in your opinion. And I like Star Trek to be consistent (why I open threads such as this and the "Difference Between Holodeck and Holosuite), so I attempt to reconcile what seems incorrect. I am looking for justification of what Admiral Morrow said.
@PhaserLightShow
Because it's fiction. Morrow is at the mercy of the people who write him. People who don't care in the same way as fans.
I would kindly suggest that maybe, perhaps your expectations might be just a tad bit high for this franchise.

In fairness, loads of suggestions have been given! But there will never be one that can satisfy you because you have said you won't accept he simply made a mistake.
He made have made a mistake. That is fair. Or rather, it would be, if he were a civilian. But he is a highly trained Starfleet Admiral (the C-in-C). He shouldn't make a mistake of more than 13 years.
@PhaserLightShow
We all make mistakes, I'm sure you do as well.
The alternative is that he didn't make a mistake, and the Enterprise is, indeed, twenty years old as of 2285. But that doesn't fit with the history established in The Menagerie, or Khan's fifteen year exile.
Why not just accept it was a mistake, both in-universe, and in real life?
