The problem is apparent age, an apparent history in the omphalos YECist solution. The scar on Adams knee and the memory of the fall out of an elm tree when he was 11. the question is that history is a specific path, it essentially is a label for the wine at Cana as to which year and which vinery it was made.
To avoid this history problem, some propose this generic omphalos solution. Adam did not have a belly button, the trees did not have growth rings, Adam did not have evidence of having being born, of having undergone the process of growing up, only the appearence of age. Nothing specific like a history, no varves, no bubbles in the ice, no coral growth rings. Nothing that can betray the fact that appearances are not evidence of a particular history. Essentially everything is observational old but if you look carefully or scientifically at anything you can not detect any history or assign an age to it.
nope, even in the YECist camp it is a very minority viewpoint. the most common one is simply to say that God did it supernaturally and leave it at that. that is why listening to people reason out the question "did Adam have a belly button, then did EVe?' is so rewarding.
