<p>This concept is known as <strong>apparent age</strong>.&nbsp; Apparent age also applied to the earth that God created.&nbsp; It had mature plants that did not have to start as seeds and grow into mature plants.&nbsp; Because this is true, the creationist has the answer to the age old question: &ldquo;Which came first, the chicken or the egg?&rdquo;&nbsp; For the creationist, the chicken came first.</p>

<p>Then, after the flood, to further show man&rsquo;s dominion, God gave the fear of man to every living creature (Genesis 9:2).&nbsp; Man had authority over every creature in the water, land and air.&nbsp; The Bible says this authority, that we can observe in nature, was given by God.&nbsp; Yet the evolutionist would make us equal with the animals.&nbsp; This in effect does away with man having the image of God (Genesis 1:26-27).</p>

<p>But if man was directly created by God; and if Adam and Eve truly fell in original sin; we are all responsible morally before Him.&nbsp; We are all sinners who have come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). &nbsp;But, of course, just inventing a theory that tries to remove responsibility, does not in reality remove that responsibility.</p>
