Mathematically, they are equivalent. Yes, one coordinate system yields much more elegant mathematics, but the results are equivalent. It's like deriving the formula for the area of a circle by integration: using Cartesian coordinates is more involved than using polar coordinates, but the formula is the same at the end.

Many people would say that even if the math was equivalent, the physics would be different. However, some big-time physicists have said otherwise. We'll see if the Higgs Boson gives us new insights. And it shouldn't be too surprising if advances in science prove the Bible true.

One of the few valid questions evolutionists have is the size of the universe. Even though we can't judge these distances accurately, I do believe the universe is much larger than 6000 years of expansion.

Consequently, I simply trust God and accept the fact God could create such a huge universe in whatever time period He chose to take! And the fact that there isn't any possible naturalistic explanation for such a large universe proves the mighty miracle working power of the One True God!
