Albert Einstein Theory of Relativity Explains God's Six-Day Creation · Brett Keane and Eve Show

• 0:03
  In Genesis chapter 1, the Bible tells us that God made
• 0:07
  everything in six days yet according to modern science.
• 0:13
  The Earth is 4.5 billion years old and the universe is
• 0:18
  something like 10 to 15 billion years old.
• 0:22
  A lot of people have really struggled with this issue.
• 0:26
  Since it appears that either one or the other of these must be
• 0:30
  true. And one of them false Many
• 0:34
  people reconcile the differences by accepting the six days of
• 0:38
  creation as time periods in a sense, but not literal days, in
• 0:43
  the sense of what we usually think of, as Earth days.
• 0:47
  Yet thanks to modern science. Even that much compromise is
• 0:52
  unnecessary. It's possible for them, both to
• 0:55
  be literally true. It's entirely possible for the
• 0:59
  day's to be literally Earth Day long days and also for the
• 1:03
  universe to be billions of years old.
• 1:07
  That sounds completely impossible but thanks to
• 1:10
  Einstein. Modern science provides us with
• 1:13
  a method of resolving. This And if it's possible for an
• 1:18
  activity of the human mind like physics to explain this, then
• 1:23
  how much more possible for God to be able to achieve it, you
• 1:28
  don't even need a University degree to understand this.
• 1:32
  It's taught in Senior High School physics and the concepts
• 1:36
  can be understood. My most people with a bit of
• 1:39
  thought put into it. Time is relative not absolute.
• 1:45
  The basic idea is that time is not an absolute thing.
• 1:49
  It depends on your perspective, very strange, but very true.
• 1:55
  It's actually completely possible under the right
• 1:58
  conditions for something to take an hour for one person.
• 2:02
  And for the exact same, actual event to happen over a year for
• 2:06
  another person. That seems like it would be
• 2:09
  impossible outside of Science Fiction.
• 2:13
  It's obviously completely counterintuitive to what we
• 2:16
  experienced in ordinary life which is probably why it's been
• 2:21
  such a big struggle for people who want to believe in both the
• 2:24
  Bible. And in many of the findings of
• 2:27
  modern science, This has been known to science since 1905,
• 2:33
  when Einstein developed his special theory of relativity.
• 2:37
  Time slows down when you travel fast.
• 2:41
  The theory of relativity is capable of fully accounting for
• 2:45
  how something could take six days and yet also take billions
• 2:49
  of years. How can that even be possible on
• 2:53
  the surface? It appears to be completely
• 2:56
  impossible yet. It must happen according to
• 2:59
  relativity, and it does actually happen according to a vast
• 3:04
  amount of scientific experimental data which has been
• 3:08
  used to verify the theory of relativity.
• 3:11
  Time dilation explains why to working clocks will report
• 3:16
  different times after different accelerations.
• 3:20
  For example, at the ISS time goes slower lagging, 0.007
• 3:26
  seconds behind for every 6 months.
• 3:30
  Time dilation explains why to working clocks will report
• 3:34
  different times after different accelerations.
• 3:38
  For example, at the ISS time goes slower lagging, 0.007
• 3:44
  seconds behind for every 6 months.
• 3:48
  For GPS satellites to work, they must adjust for similar
• 3:52
  relativistic bending of space time to coordinate with systems
• 3:56
  on Earth. The answer the things we thought
• 4:00
  of as being fixed and definite for much of the human history
• 4:04
  are actually flexible. In this case, the Paradox is
• 4:08
  resolved by the discovery by Einstein that time and length
• 4:12
  themselves are not the same when observed from different
• 4:15
  reference frames. It's become well known by some
• 4:20
  subsets of popular culture such as science fiction, but perhaps,
• 4:26
  because of its strangeness less well known by the general
• 4:29
  public, I tried to explain it to my 81 year old mother the other
• 4:34
  day. And she said, she didn't believe
• 4:37
  it and that Einstein, and the rest of the scientists must be
• 4:40
  wrong. But assuming you believe in
• 4:43
  Einstein and in the vast body of experimental evidence that
• 4:47
  verifies the theory of relativity, they aren't wrong.
• 4:51
  And time is relative, not absolute two twins.
• 4:57
  One of the most popular examples is that of two twins though?
• 5:01
  They don't need to be twins. They could be anyone at all and
• 5:04
  it would still work. One of them leaves Earth and
• 5:09
  travels very fast in a spaceship.
• 5:12
  A significant fraction of the speed of light for a long way
• 5:16
  and then returns to earth. When he gets back, his twin is
• 5:21
  literally older than he is more actual Literal time has gone by
• 5:26
  for the people on Earth, including the stationary twin
• 5:31
  than the time that has gone by for the person on the spaceship.
• 5:35
  The closer you get to the speed of light, the stronger.
• 5:38
  This effect is if you were to travel at close enough to the
• 5:43
  speed of light, it would be literally possible for billions
• 5:47
  of years to go by on Earth while only six literal days of time as
• 5:52
  measured by an ordinary clock and also measured by your own
• 5:55
  body's biological processes. Had passed on the spaceship.
• 6:01
  So according to modern science, it is fully completely literally
• 6:06
  possible for something to happen in six days and yet.
• 6:10
  Also for the exact same event to happen over billions of years.
• 6:15
  Provided that the two observers are observing from different
• 6:18
  enough situations. Despite this being
• 6:22
  counterintuitive it's what modern science tells us.
• 6:27
  Both the theoretical science has developed by Einstein and then
• 6:31
  later a huge amount of experimental e measured evidence
• 6:35
  has validated that. This is actually what really
• 6:37
  does happen in real life. And that's just one example of
• 6:42
  how time is not fixed in the way that we normally think of it.
• 6:47
  There are others time slows down near a black hole.
• 6:52
  Another good example which came later with the discovery.
• 6:56
  Again, by Einstein of general relativity in 1915 is that time
• 7:03
  slows down in the presence of gravitational fields like with
• 7:08
  special relativity and the speed of light in ordinary everyday
• 7:12
  life situations, where you aren't traveling anywhere near
• 7:16
  close to the speed of light. These effects are so tiny as to
• 7:19
  never be noticed or even big enough to measure these effects
• 7:25
  do happen on Earth to, but at a very subtle level, For example,
• 7:30
  at sea level, you age, one, billionth of a second less every
• 7:34
  year than you would. If you lived on top of Mount
• 7:38
  Everest, because the Earth's gravitational field is slightly
• 7:43
  stronger, when you're slightly closer to the Center of the
• 7:46
  Earth, The gravitational effects on time.
• 7:50
  Require a lot of gravity to become truly noticeable.
• 7:55
  Yet, if you have enough gravity, they become extremely
• 7:58
  noticeable, time slows down near a black hole.
• 8:04
  The most commonly discussed example, of this effect of
• 8:07
  gravity on time is close to a black hole.
• 8:11
  Since black holes have more gravity than anything else,
• 8:15
  pretty much by the definition of what a black hole is.
• 8:19
  The closer you get to a black hole and therefore the stronger
• 8:24
  the gravitational field, you experience the more that time as
• 8:28
  you experience it will slow down compared to the rate that time
• 8:32
  passes away from the black hole. The effect on time.
• 8:36
  Close to a black hole is similar to the experience of the twin
• 8:40
  traveling really fast in the spaceship. close to the black
• 8:45
  hole, you will age Less Than People far away from it will If
• 8:50
  you're close enough to the black hole, you could literally sit
• 8:54
  there if you hadn't been crushed to death, by the intense gravity
• 8:58
  for six literal days of your literal actual time.
• 9:02
  While you literally watched billions of literal actual years
• 9:05
  of time. Go by for people far away from
• 9:08
  the black hole in the same time period that took six actual
• 9:13
  literal days of your time. So it is entirely possible for
• 9:18
  something to happen. Literally in six literal days
• 9:21
  and yet also happen over billions of years.
• 9:25
  And if human scientific understanding can explain this
• 9:29
  with our limited mortal human brains.
• 9:32
  How many more things are possible with God?
• 9:36
  And even with just the level of difficulty of understanding,
• 9:39
  that's been explained on this one web page.
• 9:43
  And nothing more than that. It would be possible for God to
• 9:47
  have been sitting in a strong gravitational field and or
• 9:51
  traveling very fast when he created the universe in six
• 9:55
  literal days of time. And that same literal Six-Day
• 10:00
  period. Experienced by God, would have
• 10:02
  taken billions of literal years to occur on Earth.
• 10:07
  I think it's also safe to assume that God knows more about the
• 10:11
  universe than we as mortal humans do.
• 10:15
  So there must be even more things than we can think of,
• 10:18
  that would make it possible for God's word to still be true
• 10:23
  while we as humans are still able to observe the things that
• 10:26
  we do, observe about the natural world.
• 10:29
  Found with there being no real contradiction apart from perhaps
• 10:34
  occasionally an illusory, one created by our own, lack of
• 10:37
  ability to understand the bigger picture and how everything all
• 10:41
  fits together. The Bible told us this all along
• 10:46
  long before. Einstein gave us the theory of
• 10:49
  relativity to explain how time can be literally different for
• 10:53
  different observers. It Was Written in the Bible.
• 10:57
  For a thousand years in your sight are like a day that has
• 11:00
  just gone by. Psalm 19:4.
• 11:05
  NIV Psalm chapter 90, is attributed as a prayer of Moses,
• 11:11
  the man of God Wikipedia says, that unique among the Psalms it
• 11:17
  is attributed to Moses, thus making it the first Psalm to be
• 11:21
  written chronologically. The New Testament also gives us
• 11:26
  a similar message, but don't forget this one thing beloved
• 11:31
  that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years and a thousand
• 11:35
  years as one day. Second, Peter 3:8, having
• 11:41
  studied and taught relativity physics and also being a
• 11:45
  Christian to me, this seemed like an obvious resolution to
• 11:49
  the issue of six days versus billions of years.
• 11:54
  After writing, the first draft of this page, I had a look
• 11:57
  online for others who had arrived at a similar
• 12:00
  explanation. You can read more about them
• 12:04
  using Google search later on. I'll go over this whole page and
• 12:09
  fix it up some more and improve it.
• 12:13
  The Bible verse says God, made everything in six days.
• 12:18
  Logically that would imply that it took God 6 days in his time
• 12:22
  frame to make everything. It doesn't say that God made
• 12:27
  everything. While we watched it all happen
• 12:29
  in six days, all that God made everything in six days as seen
• 12:35
  in the timeframe of some other Observer, a broader perspective,
• 12:40
  much of the last few hundred years of the human race has
• 12:44
  involved us making all kinds of new and amazing discoveries.
• 12:49
  Which have contributed to things like science than the Industrial
• 12:52
  Revolution. The initial response of much of
• 12:56
  humanity from this has been to move away from traditional
• 12:59
  teachings. Like feelings of trust that our
• 13:03
  Father in heaven knows more than we do.
• 13:07
  And that his word in the Bible contains more wisdom than our
• 13:10
  own human wisdom. This disbelief, in our heavenly
• 13:15
  father is very much like the Adolescent stage of Modern Life.
• 13:20
  However, as Humanity matures, it becomes more clear at least to
• 13:26
  some that those disbelieving ideas were based on partial
• 13:30
  truths from not seeing the whole picture and were therefore
• 13:33
  incorrect. And that modern discoveries like
• 13:38
  the genuinely experimentally verifiable parts of science as
• 13:42
  opposed to the other kind of science.
• 13:45
  Do not contradict the truths of God's word in the Bible.
• 13:50
  This page is a small part of a greater effort to bring the
• 13:53
  ancient truths of scripture back into relevance in our modern
• 13:57
  world. God's truth is not made invalid.
• 14:01
  By the ways that some things appear to Mortal humans when
• 14:04
  viewed in a certain way, This includes modern observations
• 14:10
  made under certain highly specific conditions where they
• 14:13
  appear to contradict the Bible. And often originating from a
• 14:18
  Godless philosophy. That's very different to the
• 14:21
  days. When basically, everyone from
• 14:23
  Western backgrounds, including the founders of science itself
• 14:27
  believed in the Bible,
