Does the CTC Solution ACTUALLY Work?

February 22, 2024

In this episode of Winsome Creationist, the host is joined by Dr. Phil Dennis to discuss the Anisotropic Synchrony Convention and the concept of creation time coordinates. They delve deep into the implications of these theories, focusing on the struggle with the light travel time problem in relation to the creation of the universe. They discuss the issues of special relativity, general relativity, and the importance of approaching these theories with the overarching feature of the creation in mind. The episode also includes an explanation of the ideas of causality, simultaneity, and how they might be misunderstood in existing models. As a preview to future discussions, they touch on the need for a general relativity solution to tackle the light travel time problem.
