The Problems with Distant Starlight – Dan Kreft

Problems with Distant Starlight

Description: Many Christian laymen and apologists alike stumble over what has been dubbed “the distant starlight problem,” citing it as a key obstacle to their acceptance of a young (i.e. ~6,000 year) creation.

In this presentation, I’ll take this difficult topic by the horns and demonstrate to non-technical audiences how the distant starlight problem is a double-edged sword that cuts both ways–against young- and old-earth creationists alike; it is not the proverbial nail in the young-earth coffin that many think it is.

Speaker: Dan Kreft, the Seven-Foot Apologist, is a teacher, speaker, and author of the three-volume book, “Jesus” Is Not the Answer to Every Sunday School Question. He holds a degree in electrical engineering from Northwestern University, played professional basketball for three years, and is a recovering software engineer of twenty-two years. In addition to his own ministry, Dan also serves on the board of directors for the Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County, and is an adjunct teacher for Creation Training Initiative. Dan lives in Bothell, WA with his wife Adair, four kids, a dog, some cats, and a flock of aging chickens. He is also quite fond of Oreo® cookies and Lucky Charms®.
