"Adam was immortal before the Fall. No one knows how long his immortality lasted because there is no concept of time in a state of forever."

A photon travels at the speed of light. At that speed all distances shrink to zero. Therefore from the photons point-of-view it can go to any part of the universe in an instant.

In fact it just so happens that everything we see as light today is just that one single photon appearing at every place in the universe that God desires it to be.

Talk about efficiency!

Ah, no. As in, completely, 100% wrong.

A little knowledge can make one sound very stupid.

Time also slows to a singularity. An Earth day at the speed of light can seem like eternity.

If all distances shrink to zero, then why does it take different, measureable amounts of time for light from the Sun to reach each planet in our Solar System?
