Which would mean the universe we know, and more precisely planet Earth, could not be old enough to create itself at random ?

Me too. When I turn on the lights these days they seem to be just a little bit faster.

No! Dang it! These dang changes to relativity theory, coming along every couple of billion years, it's just too quick for me.

Thus providing an alibi for running a red light; "I just thought that the green light was red-shifted, Officer. After all, the speed of light has changed recently."

Things like this always happen when a Republican is in office.
It's Bush's fault.

Wasn't it supposed to have been faster 6000 years ago? Very confusing. I'm pretty sure it slowed down for Joshua when he made the sun stand still. Otherwise, I donno. I've misplaced my notes.

Could the results have to do with variables in the test ?
Is this the same old theory I heard about years ago, or is there newer and more imperical evidence now ?
What does this mean to Einsteins theory of relativity where C is the speed of light ?
Thanks

The important thing is that science has changed its story again, thus proving right all the people who say science is wrong.
