david Comment: Note that the first atoms (matter) formed 380,000 after the Big Bang, just energy particle before that. It raises a question from the inflation theory. If we we surrounded by ancient galaxies, then the Milky Way is also ancient and that is what has been estimated:

" Astronomers have known that the Milky Way is among the oldest of galaxies. The new observations suggest it was indeed one of the first to get under construction. The study puts its age at 13.6 billion years, give or take 800 million years. Further studies will be needed to reduce that margin of error."

Why is this surprising for a creationist? It would make sense that a Creator would begin working with the first available product that was available (Milky Way Galaxy) that fit the necessary criteria.

What is the purpose of living? How about, 'to reduce needless suffering. It seems to me to be a worthy purpose.
