The timescale is off (as the universe is only some 6,000 years old, Earth-time), but an interesting article.

You seem to be arguing from a religious, rather than a scientific, perspective.

There is no credible scientific evidence for a 6,000 year old earth. There is an immense body of evidence for an earth on the close order of 4.5 billion years in age.

The problem with that scientific theory is that it cannot count out the possibility that the earth was created 6,000 years ago with a 4.5 billion year history in place. That's how I would have created it...

This is the first time I have seen a time line point
of 9 billion years placed upon either an emergence
or preponderance of Dark Energy.

Dark Energy is little understood, but so too is
Dark Matter. Concepts of Antimatter have been
around for several decades, but it is not certain
if the two can be one and the same. Antimatter
is conjectured about, but seldom if ever truly
seen. Dark Matter, on the other hand, has
observable Charectoristics, yet is hard to define in
present physics equations,

No expert here just regurgitating my own learnings.
