A rhetorical device which refutes your own argument? Ok........
Quote:But we couldn't really see it for what it was until the 20th century... it's not like anyone can look up in the sky and see Andromeda. You need a powerful telescope or it looks like a small blur.By the time we figured out what it was, science had already figured out the speed of light. Anyone in their right mind would conclude that the galaxy was (at least) millions of years old.
No, someone in their right mind could just as easily conclude that God created the universe with light already reaching earth.
Quote:(In fact, it's billions of years old.) It has led tons and tons of people to reason that the universe is far older than 6,000 years.
Yes, you can conclude that as well. It all depends on your premises.
