Starlight and Time: Solving the Puzzle of Distant Starlight in a Young Universe

by Russel Humphreys

Overview

The Bible says the universe is just thousands of years old, and yet we can see stars that are billions of light-years away. Until now, creation scientists have not had a satisfactory answer to this puzzle, but the new cosmology outlined in this book offers a fresh and scientifically sound solution. Though he challenges some traditional creationist theories, Dr. Humphreys takes Scripture very straightforwardly, upholding its inerrancy and the idea of a young universe as he explains days one through four of creation week.

This book not only contains an easy-to-read popular summary of this new cosmology, but also two technical papers which were very well received at the Third International Conference on Creationism. In this enlightening book Dr. Humphreys answers questions such as:

• How do you explain distant starlight in a young universe?
• How should a creationist answer the challenges that arise when faced with traditional cosmology?
• Doesn't distant starlight prove evolution?
