Doesn't the distance of stars disprove the young earth theory?

That's not the position of a Theistic Evolutionist. Only creationists try to use their science-ey type stuff to "prove" god.

"Some people think God is an outsized, light-skinned male with a long white beard, sitting on a throne somewhere up there in the sky, busily tallying the fall of every sparrow. Othersfor example Baruch Spinoza and Albert Einsteinconsidered God to be essentially the sum total of the physical laws which describe the universe. I do not know of any compelling evidence for anthropomorphic patriarchs controlling human destiny from some hidden celestial vantage point, but it would be madness to deny the existence of physical laws."-Carl Sagan

Don't get SO started again.......

So....you think you see stars as they are right now? The speed of light, in your opinion, is instantaneous? Boy, you might want to have a word with Stephen Hawking. Hell, sounds like you could tell quite a few astrophysicists a thing or two. I'd like to see your white paper on the subject since you know so much.I am fully ready to have my cosmological ass handed to me in the event you actually DO know what the fuck you are talking about because I am but a rookie ass cosmologist.

Forgive me, I was drunk when I wrote that. Looking back, I have no idea why the hell I said what I said.

Not technically so. For instance, if we see a star that is 4 billion light years away, we see it as it was 4 billion years ago.ABE:I thought this was what you meant when I responded in Message 74. I guess my drunkenness didn't put me too far off base.Edited by hooah212002, : No reason given.
