Why would we do apologetics when the data is on our side?








Compare this to speed of light estimates of “Creation Scientists” who feed the number 6,000 into the equation and they stand back in awe as the speed of light goes to infinity some six thousand years ago. Yeah, that’s REAL Science. What a laugh.

If you're going at the speed of light, how much time goes by for you when travel to the nearest star? The nearest nebula? The nearest galaxy? The answer is zero.

Why do you make the silly 19th Century mistake of thinking time is constant? I can tell you why: the other "science" you believe in so fervently is stuck in that era.

And if you are standing on earth and you shine a laser beam off a mirror on the moon, it takes a MEASURABLE amount of time to be reflected back to you. Does this concept confuse or frighten you, that light from an object a hundred million light years away might actually have taken a hundred million light years to get to us? What is so difficult about the concept of a light year that you somehow think it should be instantaneous for a (relatively)stationary observer rather than taking a year for light to traverse?
