My head is spinning!
We went to this astronomy thing last night: they had several really cool telescopes and a powerpoint demonstration with lots of facts on the things we saw in the telescopes. We saw the rings of Saturn, the moon’s craters and several stars, it was really cool. Well, of course, there was several Evolutionary things said there and Mum later asked us what we wished we knew to counter the Evolutionary things the man said. I said I wished I knew something about light-years and how stars billions of years distant from us could be giving us light in a 6,000 year old universe. I studied this a bit today and learnt about one of Einstein’s theories. It will blow your mind!
Einstein said that gravity affects time. That means that in a place where there is more gravity, time travels slower. So, from a Creationist’s point of view, if in the Earth’s history it was once in a area where there was more gravity then time would have traveled slower here then way out in space, where all the stars are. Then the light from the stars would have had lots of time (their time) to travel to our solar system and to earth, who’s still spent only a few thousand years. So the world is still only about 6,000 years old but the stars had a long time (their faster time) to reach us! Doesn’t it blow your mind! How can that work? It seems crazy and impossible!
So, if there was a “Narnia” out in another galaxy, then they could experience thousands of years for them while earth experienced a year or two, just like in the Chronicles of Narnia! It’s so mind-boggling. Comment if you can’t follow me or just think that’s seems so impossible!
Another thing: the man said something about some scientists saying there are several universes out there. How can that work? I don’t believe it, but still.. how can that work? I mean, what’s a universe? Then how can you have two infinites, or even how can you draw a line and say where the universe stops? Is there a wall, or does it just fade into nothing? It’s mind boggling!

For one..thanx for the comment I'll be thinking about your ideas.
It is so amazing how God created the earth and space and the whole universe!! You wonder how it all works.
Well I should go but I'll be checking in soon.

Yes, God's creation is mind boggling. just think how many stars are in a galaxy and then think of the infinity of galaxies out there! By the way, thanks for the comment. ~Turumbar
