This code should do the job:
<cfset datetocheck = "#DateFormat("09/02/2000", "mm/dd/yyyy")#">
<cfset currentdate = "#DateFormat(Now(), "mm/dd/yyyy")#">
<cfset lastweekdate = "#DateFormat(currentdate-7, "mm/dd/yyyy")#">
<cfset difference = DateDiff("d", lastweekdate, datetocheck)>
<cfoutput>
Date to Check: #datetocheck#<br>
Current Date: #currentdate#<br>
Last Week's Date: #lastweekdate#<br>
Difference between last week's date and date to check: #difference#
</cfoutput>
