No way. An all powerful and all knowing creator could just create the cosmic background radiation exactly as you find it.

If you were to write a science book, I suspect it would be very thin. Every answer would be "because God did it that way".

“No way. An all powerful and all knowing creator could just create the cosmic background radiation exactly as you find it.No way. An all powerful and all knowing creator could just create the cosmic background radiation exactly as you find it.”

No, that is wrong. The act of Creation of the electromagnetic radiation even with omnipotence results in a Universe with its current physical properties which has an effect upon the radiation during the period of time after the Creation event. A Creation event only 6,000 years ago results in properties for electromagnetic radiation which is different for electromagnetic radiation resulting from a Creation event some billions of years ago. Yes, an omnipotent Creator can in a conjectural miracle create a simulation of about anything, but once the physical properties have been created the objects of the universe are constrained to conform with the created properties. The properties created in the Universe we experience affect the rates at which radiation frequencies are shifted over time in an expanding space-time continuum as well as spin properties of sub-atomic matter, changes in microscopic and macroscopic force interactions, and so forth.

In other words, once the act of Creation has established physical properties for a Universe, those properties foreclose the ability to freeze the progression of physical properties. In order to maintain the appearance of an older universe would require the continuous recreation of the illusory young universe throughout all frames of reference in the space-time continuum. Such a proposition presupposes the non-existence of cause and effect, and once you have eliminated cause and effect, you have also eliminated the possibility of God-given free-will, sin and redemption, and all other cause and effect relationships in Christianity.

This would make God a trickster, and personally, I find it much more likely that He occasionally writes in allegories.
