The concept of the ‘appearance of age’ (or creation with an ‘appearance of history’) is a viable option for the Creation explanation of origins. This view posits that creation was brought into existence in a fully mature and functionally complete state. The example of Adam and Eve being formed as adult humans and the fruit trees in the Garden of Eden with seed-bearing fruit at their origin illustrates two widely accepted examples of the ‘appearance of history,’ or God’s directly producing a mature creation. This example can be extended to the creation of the solar system and even the entire universe. The major problems with the evolutionary origin of our solar system were also briefly reviewed. It is concluded that ‘appearance of age’ is a viable explanation for the origin of the solar system and, by extension, of the universe.
