I know the theory, but I have a problem with the Time dilation and length contraction in SR, But it does not change the fact that the Bible claims an age of the Earth of 6000 years+ zero time.Honestly, it is thought the universe has no "center", however, you will not that in all points in Euclidean space, the speed of expansion is consistent, that is, telescopes looking as far as possible from both poles of Earth see galaxies receding somewhat evenly. So, for one of multiple examples, IF the solar system is near the center, at time of BB singularity expansion, far less light-time would pass here than at the galactic extremities. Old galaxies, young Solar System...
Please also understand--a great deal of conjecture revolves around (pun not intended) the presumed long age of the solar system. For example, the Oort Cloud is nothing less than "But it has to exist, otherwise we cannot explain why the comets haven't burned away after billions of years!" Or see the "Young Sun Paradox" issues, again, an older Sun would have possibly existed where the Earth was in space billions of years ago! Etc., etc.
I believe that there were galaxies created before the Solar system, and that it could be billions of years of light travelling from its original position, it does not mean the Bible is wrong.
