The problem with time is pointed out in detail by a brilliant scholar
named Schroeder (sp?) from Israel.

The problem is that clocks run at rates determined by the local gravity
field. That is, a clock on the surface of a neutron star runs slower
than one on Earth. This is a well verified consequence of the General
Theory of Relatively, and no, it is not a plot against the YEC's.

Where is the clock we use to measure the days of Genesis? This is one
of the reasons that the debate over time makes no reason. Few seem to
be aware of what every physisist knows, what clock where at what speed.

What if the clock was one that was placed in the intense gravity field
of the Big Bang? How many days would elapse for that clock since the
Big Bang and now? You should read Schroeders book but he argues that it
would be six days. There are a lot of details, see the book.

Interested? Send me an email and I will look up the ISBN number and
post it.
