Yes, but that would mean that god is a liar.

Oh Come Now! How ever would we know?

Does that mean that it is perfectly OK to lie so long as nobody finds out?
That sounds a bit messed up to me.

Re: We cannot be legends in our own minds
I was being facetious.
Yes I know. So was I.
​
Seriously though, it really doesn't make much sense that God would deliberately deceive us that way.
If the world was created last Thursday at 4pm (eastern sea-board) then all of history is a complete fabrication, the bible included.
It means that Jesus didn't die for our sins. We are just being told that he did when in fact none of it ever happened. That is a bare faced lie in anybody's book and makes a total mockery of everything that ever happened.
​
I just don't buy that as an option.
