Last Thursdayism (alternately Last Tuesdayism or Last Wednesdayism) is the idea that the universe was created last Thursday, but with the physical appearance of being billions of years old. It’s also a counter to the creationism theory. Under Last Thursdayism, books, fossils, light already on the way from distant stars, and literally everything (including your memories of the time before last Thursday) were all formed at the time of creation (last Thursday) in a state such that they appear much older.

The debate on whether Last Thursdayism is true has raged on ever since the creation of the universe last Thursday.

I was careful in my definition of creationism to exclude Last Thursdayism.

Last Thursdayism is the absolute version of Goddidit, and is as logically irrefutable as it is worthless. Not even creationists are interested in Last Thursdayism.
