Falsifying a young Universe. (re: Supernova 1987A)

Actually, I've heard a very interesting proposition to explain this.How old was Adam when he was created? 0 or many years old?
How old was the universe when it was created? 0 or billions of years old?Of course, that's only one theory for creationists, but it does disarm this argument rather well.

Are you going to contribute this topic, or are you just going to critique my use of the English language?

And where exactly is God lieing? By that logic God would've lied when he created Adam. Be civil now.

That's why I said it only one theory. There's another really complex cosmological one. It takes into account that if v = d / t. Both v & d constant (speed of light and distance light travels) are constant, but t is not necessarily constant (b/c of general relativity). Of course that's grossly oversimplified.

I don't know what GR stands for, but I remember that this explanation of cosmology came from Humphrey.Time is distorted by gravity according to Einstein's theories of relativity. Velocity of light is constant. Distance is constant. But time is not. Which means the time in which we supernova 1987A could be different.edit: Wait! GR=general relativity (duh!)This message has been edited by commike37, 01-18-2005 19:23 AM
