Time dilation creationism is a form of young Earth creationism that attempts to harmonize the literal interpretation of the Genesis creation narrative with the existence of distant galaxies. The theory proposes that the universe experienced a rapid passage of time, while the Earth itself experienced six literal days, because of time dilation. It is asserted that the time dilation mainly happened on the fourth day of creation.[1][2][3][4][5]
