Would it be alright to write a comprehensive section on the age of the universe from the mainstream secular science POV. The age of the universe is virtually non-existent except for the YEC point of view and it be good to have more balance. --[[User:BMcP|BMcP]] 20:51, 25 December 2009 (EST)

:I have an open mind about this, but I couldn't object more and I can't imagine that such a section would be useful. We don't have a section on Hindu creation myths, or on the pre-1900 scientific view, I really don't see the point to having another nonsensical history of the Universe. If you want to add anything, put it in a special section called "Atheist viewpoint" or something like that, to keep it from being presented as settled fact.

==On the first day==
God created The Heavens and the Earth. It is safe to assume he created The Heavens first. Without The Earth the definition of a day is arbitrary as a day is defined as the time it takes to spin once on its axis. With this is mind we can assume that The Earth is only thousands of years old while The Universe could be much older, even up to 13 billion years old. A young Earth does not necessarily equate to a young Universe. --[[User:Chewy Suarez|Chewy Suarez]] ([[User talk:Chewy Suarez|talk]]) 09:52, 25 August 2019 (EDT)
