Young Earth Creationists (YECs) believe the whole world and the entire Universe was created by God less than 10,000 years ago.
Yes, you’re right: free from the ravages of reality.
10,000 years is somewhat less than the time it takes light to travel from the centre of our Milky Way galaxy to here. Yet astronomers can see galaxies more than 13 billion light years away. That is, the light took over 13 billion years to travel here.
As a silly service to truth and understanding I present an unbiased timeline history of the Universe. I leave out a few trillion events, but waddaya gunna do?
And oh, yeah: each vertical pixel below is equal to over 2 million years…
Young Earth Creationists really need to get a sense of perspective.
Quick! Fetch the Total Perspective Vortex…
