I just watched the first 50 seconds of that one and I agree with what it's saying about the speed of light. The thing with the video my friend showed me is that their argument is that time wasn't constant in the beginning.
Because the simple explanation of why the universe is so old relies on the equation
time = distance/speed
it means that if time wasn't constant then that changes the outcome of the equation to a possibly wrong answer, just like if the speed of light wasn't always constant (which I think it always has). Either way I'll check out the 5 videos and see what their arguments are.
The long age big-bang idea has a problem of it's own with light-travel-time. Seems there are points in the distant universe which are today all the same temperature, yet they are so far apart that there has not been anywhere near enough time for energy travelling at the speed of light to cross that distance to equilibrate the temperature. Even with the billions of years the big-bang model shows, the big-bang model needs billions of more years than that. :Carl Wieland
So if the speed of light which is the speed limit of the universe is a problem with the big-bang, why do you allow for the big-bang and yet dismiss creation for the same reason.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
