Issues in Creationism: If Clocks Ran Faster in Deep Space, Were Genesis Days Really Ordinary?

Hi!
I discovered distant starlight, probably 23 of August 2001. 24 of August, St. Bartholomew's Day, I had solved the problem.
No, not "took four days on earth but billions of years out there" or whatever it was he was saying.
Geocentrism.
Have you heard the expression "von Neumann chain"? We use an already small measure to introduce an even smaller measure, then that to introduce an even smaller one than that ...
In the reverse, one of the links is "main series are roughly the size of the sun, because Sirius is 8.6 LY away and looks as big as the Sun (or a moderately bigger star) would look from 8.6 LY away" ...
Before you come to distances that are problematic ever so slightly for a young earth, this is more important than parallax ...
But the link before that is "Sirius has a parallax of 0.379 arc seconds, and that means, since we are moving, since 2 AU is a known side of the triangle, it's 8.6 LY away"
And this presupposes "we are moving, so 2AU is involved in the triangle, and the parallax angle is physically on the other side, between two positions of earth" ...
Which is totally superfluous if:
- Galileo was wrong
- Sirius is moved by an angel, both for annual aberration and for annual parallax.
Now, an Atheist would have no problem refuting that ... from Atheism, for other Atheists. How would you (if at all) refute it?
