== Creationism and starlight ==
In regards to the question of how one can see [[star|starlight]] from millions of light years away, [[Young earth creationism|young earth creationist]] [[scientist]]s commonly mention several things. First, these scientists assert that the [[Big Bang Theory]] has a star light-travel time problem and cite the work of Dr. [[Charles W. Misner]]. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v25/i4/lighttravel.asp</ref> Secondly, creationist [[Barry Setterfield]] has proposed that the speed of light was faster in the past. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2002/0809_cdk_davies.asp</ref> Thirdly, the work of young earth creationist scientist Dr. [[John Hartnett]] proposes an alternative, creationist view, by theorizing the Earth was trapped in a time-dilation field caused by extremely strong gravitation during the first few days of creation, from Earth's point of view, while billions of years passed for the rest of the universe.

He attributes the field, it's removal and the continued balance in our solar system (after the field was removed) to divine intervention. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/tj/v17/i2/cosmology.asp</ref>

It is also possible that God created the light already in transit to Earth so that the age of the Universe would appear to be older than it is.
