Can the earth be both old and young?

[AviWangler]

Science has taught us manying things in the last 100 years that contradict it's laws. For example a quark can be in multiple places and times at once, the speed of light can impace time and black holes have infinite weight and energy with no mass. When we have to look at time in space in a more abstract manner it is not a fuse that starts buring as Newton would have thought.

I would have to entertain the possibility that God as an infinite being before our dimentional reality would need to insert us with energy in this dimention. So like a cartoon poking it's head through a black hole at the end of a show his hand could have triggered a singularity of energy ("let there be light") and it could have expanded over the darkness making the universe into form. Since black holes have infinite mass and quarks can and possibly other things can exist at different times and places at once things of creation might be in front of us then and now. We might be next to energies that exist in our time and are emiting from the big bang. This not only changes our view of physics but of old and young.

So if the old can be new and the new can be old how can we say it is either or? I think the things we know about physics make both perspctives true since light has distance it is old but since the same light might be next to us it is young.

Thoughts?

Yes, actually, I was thinking a very similar thing.. The idea of your position in space would constitute whether it was a long period of time or short..

At the Big Bang, time would be all different at different points of reference..

Also, there is the factor of light slowing.. And if it was logarithmic..

Honestly, scientists are guessing at a lot of things and assuming many things.. It could actually be a long period of time and also short depending on your point of reference..

So to say the Universe is billions of years old.. I would have to ask from what point of reference? If you were on a ray of light, what would it have been?

it is said that one day for god is 1,000 years peter 3:8 so basically it took god 6,000 years just to create the earth. the bible never says six thousand years people just misinterpret, plus man was already alive before Adam and Eve descended upon earth. the earth has to be very old, but 4.6 billion years seems like overkill i myself believe it's around 2 million years.
