If going by the bible literally,there is no scientific explanation.In Gen. it states that god created the heavens in one day.In the book of Isaiah it says that god stretched out the heavens.If the verse is true then that would mean that they were much closer before he did.And beleiving that god is limited by the speed of light is rediculous if you beleive there really is one.Needless to say it cant be scientifically measured or calculated.But one thing that can support creationist is the fact that it is impossile to measure a triangle thats a straight line.How could you gety an angle from that unless you make a very big assumption.Even SN1987A is based on the assumption that we are observing the correct decay rates of the cobalt.And how many times have they been wrong about things like that.

Re: Stars?
Yes that is true.An athiest doesnt beleive,an agnostic is one who claims to have proof of the nonexistance of God.
