Aschlafly has "numerous references" to stars 39 billion light years away. I have an open mind about this, and I trust that as an educator he will want to share them. [[User:ScottDG|ScottDG]] [[User talk:ScottDG|Talk]] <b>2 billion lightyears ago...wait, what? </b> 21:28, 30 January 2012 (EST)

:Rob, I posted on your talk page that the rate of expansion is very small, considering the distances involved. Two objects that are relatively strongly bound gravitationally don't experience the expansion because gravity resists the very small force driving them apart. However, between two objects far enough away for gravity to be very weak, the expansion is more noticeable. [[User:RachelW|RachelW]] 22:06, 30 January 2012 (EST)

The article states about one of the models: "As gravity can affect the rate at which time passes, he calculated that while the six days of creation week were passing on Earth, billions of years' of time was passing at the edge of the universe. According to this idea, the Biblical references to time are according to an observer (real or imaginary) on Earth, so ages are given in 'Earth time.'" Schlafly, tell me, if GR is "liberal claptrap," then how can this mechanism work?! --[[User:AndyFrankinson|AndyFrankinson]] 20:00, 23 July 2012 (EDT)
