Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

If the visible stars in the night sky are the product of light travelling many thousands of light years from the source, and if the earth/universe/stars was only circa 6000 years old as often quoted by creationist subscribers. Should the number of visible stars be vastly reduced to the naked eye, or is 6000 years enough time, for enough light, from enough stars to reached us so there would be an indiscernible difference?
