>>KURT EVANS: Much of the astronomical evidence appears to indicate periods of time greater than the roughly 6000 years the Bible seems to allow since the beginning of creation, but I think it’s important to remember that if the original positions of the stars placed the earth near the center of a deep interstellar gravity well, then according to Einstein’s general theory of relativity, the effects of gravitational time dilation could very easily have caused billions of years to elapse in other parts of the universe while only a few hours elapsed at the surface of the earth.<<

The evidence is that billions of years passed here on earth.

“The evidence is that billions of years passed here on earth.”

If you’re interested in getting another perspective, I’d recommend the following books:
