The universe appears "old", but it is still less than 10,000 years old

Wait. I've got it. You play a Christian on AF.org but really you are a devil's advocate.

If I believed the Bible was the word of God as Christians do, why would I not be?

Additionally, do you respect Old-Earth Christians more or less than Young-Earth Christians and why?

Old Earth creationists are somewhat less ignorant than YECs, although their dissonance may be greater.

Your misinterpretations of relativity are absurd.
You completely misunderstand that it is the speed of light that is a constant, the same for all frames of reference, all observers.

Quote:In physics, special relativity (SR, also known as the special theory of relativity or STR) is the accepted physical theory regarding the relationship between space and time. It is based on two postulates: (1) that the laws of physics are invariant (i.e., identical) in all inertial systems (non-accelerating frames of reference); and (2) that the speed of light in a vacuum is the same for all observers, regardless of the motion of the light source.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
