Yes Welcome Doc Brown (cool name)!
Those are some great theories and pretty much what I believe!

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
An interesting creation theory...

Well, I thought I came up with that theory on my own. It looks like I'm not alone then if some profesionally scientist has put forth a more detailed theory.
I guess rational people do come to the same conclusions when they objectively take the biblical story of creation for literal, and compare it to today's true science of universal laws. I totally drafted an entire paper on the theory of what I believed happened for creation and the Flood to give us what we see today in the earth and above in space. It was quite detailed, and I thought I was a quack for suggesting such an idea, but it was the only one that made sense to me. I am so happy to realize that there are others who interestingly are comming to the same conclusions I did a few years ago. For the record, I arrived at this theory through both biblical and scientific study, AND prayer - and one day it just came to me as clear as day.

One and the same.
Oh BTW do you know of any info on the web about this?

I don't suppose you can post your paper here. I'm really interested in this and want more info.

for the record, I was one of the main vets from the LBMB who dissented in 2000 with the way the board was being run, and we migrated to our own message boards. Christian Forums is the result of what was once called The King's Tavern - the once UnOfficial Left Behind Message Board and destination of hundreds of veterans from 2000. Welcome DocBrown. If you see any of the other LBMB regulars around here, like Navigator, or Apologist, be sure to say hi.

Perhaps. If Jerry thinks that if G~d created Adam fully grown that it follows that we must allow for the possibility of last Tuesdayism, then he's also going to have to accept the same kinds of comparisons with evolution.
In other words, Jerry is going to have to start accepting the possibility that cars, computers, watches, and everything else we previously thought we designed and built actually evolved on their own despite the evidence to the contrary.
One ridiculous extreme deserves another.

Ok seein as I started all this... the superacceleration thing sounds pretty nifty... in fact highly probable. But we all know that Adam could not have been created as an embryo.. he had no mother correct? Adam had to be formed fully capable of taking care of himself and aquiring food... (about callouses... I don't think they were needed until after the fall because there was no pain back then...) Now to expand upon Joephuses thingee... if the purpose of the earth was to create man...(assuming from man being the only one considered "very" good and what God ended on...here yes I know) all the other creations would be not quite as important and God could have worked everything out (all the details) for the ultimate creation project (man). In effort to give man maximum time for enjoyment... God slowed down the original rate of time (God created time and can control it at will...) so that now the current rate of time is considered "normal" and assumed to have always been that way. Also the Bible is specific that there was a morning and an evening on each of the creation days... but there were no days before God created light therefore any time elapased before the creation of light -> no matter how lengthy <- all fits into day one. God could have used this time to do whatever I don't know.. move things into posistion, ponder how animals would look, drink Dr. Pepper and max and relax... I don't know. Maybe I have kinda expounded and got off the main focus of your theory and if I have I am seriously sorry.. but that was just my spill... and about fossils... who says God might have just wanted to admire the beauty of fossils? Maybe He was designing something in the bedrock that He would find beautiful.. and man is now defacing that... (kinda like my tobacco soapbox... if God created tobacco... why are you burning God's creations? One of those things...) Oh dear I have talked too much...

npetreley,
As far as the OP is concerned, Jerry doesn't have to accept anything. The question was not how did god handle the time it took him to make it, but "Because God created it already developed?" In that vein, Jerry's question was perfectly valid.
I am not a scientist, but I always thought that time slowed down and stopped inside a singularity. I cite the premise of the show Andromeda, and an episode of Stargate SG-1. I have also read Einstein's Relativity, so it's not just TV that got me where I am today.
Which brings up a problem, in my mind, with the superacceleration theory. If time is travelling faster in the singularity as the SA theory states how does that affect a creator who is inside the same universe? He is also experiencing time at the same rate. If the creator is outside the universe, he is not affected by the 4th dimension of this universe and therefore does not experience any passage of time. Which negates the idea that he can compare one day of his nonexistant "passage of time" to the universe's existant passage of billions of years.
Although, I am equating the singularity with the whole universe. Perhaps I missed something.
