If creation is only about 6,000 years old, how do you explain nebula that are 30,000 light years and further from earth? How do you explain the Greeks inventing agriculture about 15,000 years before Moses?

Dinosaurs?
Age of Himalayas?
Time it takes for stars to evolve?

Because it never says that God goes by our 24 hour days. A day to him could have been a million years to us, I believe that it could be a combination of both creation and evolution. Why couldn't God have created, and then evolution just carried on afterwards?

light is not a constant.scientist have been able to speed up light and slow down light they have even stopped it in a lab. so you cant measure time with light if it is not a constant. and who was here 15,000 years before moses to witness that. the ways that science measure time like carbon dating don't work. you can take a dead animal that died a year ago and carbon dating will say that it was 30,000 years old. dinosaurs lived with humans before they became extinct. they are even in the Bible they are called dragons. even in the book of Job it talks about a specific dinosaur called behemoth.the mountains are not that old. and nobody has ever seen a star evolve it doesn't happen. they only have theory's how it might happen but it doesn't all stars where created like they are.

Time = Distance / Speed
If the speed of light has not changed, the only thing left untouched in the equation is time itself. In fact, Einstein’s relativity theories have been telling the world for decades that time is not a constant.
Two things are believed (with experimental support) to distort time in relativity theory—one is speed and the other is gravity. Einstein’s general theory of relativity, the best theory of gravity we have at present, indicates that gravity distorts time.
This effect has been measured experimentally, many times. Clocks at the top of tall buildings, where gravity is slightly less, run faster than those at the bottom, just as predicted by the equations of general relativity GR.
When the concentration of matter is very large or dense enough, the gravitational distortion can be so immense that even light cannot escape. The equations of GR show that at the invisible boundary surrounding such a concentration of matter (called the event horizon, the point at which light rays trying to escape the enormous pull of gravity bend back on themselves), time literally stands still.
I'm not a YEC, but it's a pretty good theory.

1. Astronomers are wrong in their calculations of how far away things are. Einstien proved that space and time is warped.
2. You first have to prove that Greeks were around 15,000 years before Moses and there is no such evidence.
So this is another, "If . . . " question where both premises are wrong.

The premise is wrong as there are very few 'creationists" who believe creation is only 6,000 years old. What people who believe in a creator are saying is that the complexity of our planet points to a deliberate Designer who not only created our universe, but sustains it today. The human brain's complexity shows a higher intelligence behind it. There is an intelligence to it, the ability to reason, to produce feelings, to dream and plan, to take action, and relate to other people. How does one explain the human brain? "Chance" or "natural causes" are insufficient explanations.
