Perfect timing, I'm working on my essay. The situation's about asking which side I'd take, the religious approach about the birth of the universe or the scientific one?

You've got it the wrong way around. Why would the universe take any longer to produce lifeforms that could ask your question?

We are lucky that we are able to determine the age of the Universe at all. In a few billion years, it might not be possible anymore because of the background radiation having decayed to the point of it essentialy dissappearing.

The universe is not young. It is already past middle age.

So is Earth by the way. Complex organisms first appeared ~ half a billion years ago, and will disappear in around half a billion years due to Sun cooking the planet.

Why is it 2020 and not 1980 or 2060?
Whatever it is that makes it the present is what's making the universe young.
