Could the formation of stars and planets be faster then we realise?

When we look at stars being born, we see it at the speed it takes. If it were happening at a faster rate than this it would be an issue with causality. It would also make walking down the street difficult because the formation of planets follows the same principles that govern everything from cars to planes to birds and bees. It would be everything we see is happening faster than we see it. This would make it impossible for us to do anything It would be like playing a very very Laggy video game, We would be touching and interacting with objects that are no longer there.
