Here's A Thought

Maybe someone out there can give me an answer to this question, but I'm going to ask it. My wife just turned on the TV and it was on the History Channel initially, and I caught something about what was being said. They were talking about some Star or stellar phenomenon that's 64 Billion Light years away. A light year is a measure of distance, namely the distance that light can travel in one year. That would mean that it would take 64 Billion years for the light from this object to reach Earth. However, the Big Bang Theory says that the Big Bang occurred, starting up the Universe, around 14 Billion years ago. So, how is it that light from this star, or whatever, is reaching us on Earth today? Seems to me that the nearest light from this object should be 50 Billion light years away still, right?

Now, that being said, I know how ascribing to the Biblical account of creation would deal with such a question. To answer the questions about the apparent age of the Earth, you would look at the fact that God created Adam as a full grown adult, with the appearance of age. Likewise, you would say that God created the Earth with the appearance of age also. So, why not take it one more step, which would actually fit logically into the rest of this, and say that God created the entire universe with that same appearance of age, including the light that already reaches Earth (and beyond) even from 64 Billion light years away.

So, if someone from the evolutionary side wants to give an answer to this, that would be great, I'd be interested to hear what you have to say, and anyone else who wants to weigh in is welcome also, of course.
