Young Galaxies imply a Young Cosmos

Friday, June 22nd, 2007

[Introductory Creation Science]
Although the existence of single young galaxy does not in and of itself prove a specially created Young Cosmos, if all the galaxies are shown to be young, even the ones which secular scientists argue are the earliest since the beginning of time, then the most natural interpretation is that the universe is young. The inference is almost inescapable.

Let’s first consider the problems of the Big Bang cosmology creating galaxies. A former professor of mine, James Trefil (no friend of ID and had debated William Dembski in 2005), had this to say about galaxies:

Five Reasons Why Galaxies Can’t Exist

The problem of explaining the existence of galaxies has proved to be one of the thorniest in cosmology. By all rights, they just shouldn’t be there, yet there they sit. It’s hard to convey the depth of frustration that this simple fact induces among scientists.

The state of the stalemate, evidence for and against YEC

[Introductory Creation Science]

jb asked that I post my thoughts on evidences for YEC. He asked in comment #3, Wavelength behavior at a fixed location, Jellison and Bridgman’s critique…

Maybe you could make a blog post elaborating on this in layman/popular-audience terms. What are the specific physical evidences that have moved you more toward accepting a YEC model? What are the problems you’ve identified with galactic, stellar and planetary evolution?

I will offer answers over several threads as the topic is deep. So let me introduce the topic.

YEC Resources

Monday, June 18th, 2007

I put together a resource page that contains links to various YEC-related web sites that I’ve collected, mostly from various posts on this blog. I’ll keep this updated as I learn of more (Salvador, you might want to review it from time to time to make sure you agree with linking to them, and that they are of the quality you would endorse):

We heard a lot about the creation science museum which opened in May in the USA. Another one is opening in July in Canada!!! Canadian Creation Science Museum Makes Front Page News. Check out the video!
