Given that time is relative there is no reason one necessarily has to choose between young earth/old earth. Both could be true simultaneously depending on the perspective of the one recounting the event.

That definitely impossible...One or the other is true...Truth isn't relative...

but yes, you can chose either and still be a Christian...Siding with the Old Earth scenario however, makes you blind to and ignorant of a multitude of OT prophecies concerning the return of Jesus Christ...

But, what ever floats your boat...

He didn't say that truth was relative, he said that our understanding of truth was relative. We see it from the point of view of those who live here, in this moment of time and thereby are subject to the same things which make the Creation appear to be older than what it is. God, who is outside of time, left a record that says it was only a little less than 6,000 years ago that he did all this.

"That definitely impossible...One or the other is true..."

Wrong. Einstein's general theory of relativity says both can definitely be true simultaneously. GPS systems recognize this fact and must be adjusted to account for it.

How so?
