Only because you refuse to differentiate between existential age and physical age.As you realise I reject your embedded age idea because it is, well, self contradictory nonsense.
Embedded evolution would be Omphalos; and why would God embed evolution, then write that He did something else?However if you are going to go down that route, I don't see how embedded evolution is any more of a problem than embedded age.
He didn't 'embed 4.5 billion years of time on earth in 6,000 years', He embedded 4.5 billion years of age in the earth in the moment it was created.If God can embed 4.5 billion years of time on earth in 6,000 years, he can embed 3.5 billion years of evolution in there with it too.
He knows that, but his post is so full of errors about what I claim, he can't see it.As far as i am aware the age came from the idea of a pope that if you count the generations seen in the bibel and add all of those up you come to atleast 4000 years.
Dont take my word for it though
Given that age is how long something has physically existed there is no difference.Only because you refuse to differentiate between existential age and physical age.
Your embedded age is Omphalos anyway, I don't see why that is a problem for you, other than the fact you don't like the term. You see, either your embedded age involved the passage of time, in which case you can include embedded evolution too, or it did not involve the passage of time, in which case, while you call it 'age' it is really something else that only has the appearance of age, and is pure Omphalos.Embedded evolution would be Omphalos;
Isaiah 64:8 But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.and why would God embed evolution, then write that He did something else?
A pretty long first day.He didn't 'embed 4.5 billion years of time on earth in 6,000 years', He embedded 4.5 billion years of age in the earth in the moment it was created.
Then don't give it that --- give it definition #4 in answers.com.Given that age is how long something has physically existed there is no difference.

If you're not willing to do that, or if you want to argue definition #4, that's your prerogative; but don't expect me to kowtow to your reluctance.
Suit yourself, Assyrian --- but don't expect me to kowtow to your reluctance.Of course there are some meanings where old is used to describe something with the appearance of greater age, but that brings us back to Omphalos and God creating the world to look older than it actually was.

Interesting remark in light of the fact that I don't even use it in my definition of Embedded Age, isn't it?Someone is reluctant to misuse the word "age"? Amazing!

Where did AV go?
From answers.com:If his definition of "age" is "the state of being old", I want to know what his definition of "old" is.
In Adam's case, the physical characteristics would be limited, for two reasons:4. Having or exhibiting the physical characteristics of age:
