Line 14: − + − 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>
Avoiding redundancy. The starlight problem already is a very narrow sub-case of the speed of light issue, so including it here just like that looks weird - especially when there is an article about it
In the Biblical creation God created light on the first [[day]]; [[God]] said ''Let there be light,'' and there was light<ref>[[Genesis]] 1:3</ref>.
