I know, and the light from stars was created somewhere between Earth and Mars, I'm just saying how silly the debate can get on crevo threads!
Actually, or philosophically, Young Earth Creationism would have to believe that Man is the only sentient creature.
Your point about creation of the light from distant stars in the local vicinity would be impossible if there were other witnesses to creation, say five or ten thousand light years away.
They may not have a problem with that, but I do. The Universe I see is an awesome Creation, with room for other mansions.
