I will scientifically prove the existence of God to you

How could something be aging before it even exists?

In my mind that does not seem possible. Now maybe some people think God keeps the same foundation for earth, and then changes the surface, and the universe around it sometimes!? If that were the case, then the new earth coming after Jesus returns might just be the same foundation with a new surface and new universe! Truth be told, that is too far out even for me. I just look at it like the earth was created 6100 years ago and any appearance of age that natural only science sees is based on a faulty premise.

If it came into existence 6100 years ago, then it has an age of 6100 years.

That seems right to me too

It can't have an age of billions of years if it has existed for only 6100 years.

Not an actual age (barring a scenario like I mentioned)

True

That depends if age starts when something comes to exist or not. I think of it that way. So if the earth came to exist some 6100 years ago in my mind it's age is 6100 years old

For AV, the Earth is 6100 years old. But God made it appear much older than that. So even though the earth appears much older, history began at the time of Creation, 6100 years ago. Thus embedded age with no history.

And you couldn't be wronger.

You have no idea what I believe.

God also embedded history as well as age into creation? Is that were I'm getting it wrong?

That is correct.

That is where you're getting it wrong.

Embedded Age = maturity without history.

The day he came into existence, Adam was old enough to have a job, get married, and have children -- in that order, I might add.

But he had no history at all.

What about the physical universe? Is it also maturity without history? That's what I wrote earlier and you said I have no idea what you believe. So I'm now confused.

Did the Earf get 100 years older when i wasn't looking at their YEC model?
