66. RE: World's Biggest Science Project Aims to Unlock 'God Particle'
how are putting all these facts out there that aren't true. As if someone was there 4.5 billion years ago when the Big Bang happened. You guys believe we came from a rock and yet you say that people believe in a god that they do not know exsists. You beleive the that great great great great grandpa was soup that came alive. Take away billions of years and your theory looks very stupid

how are putting all these facts out there that aren't true. As if you were there 6,010 years ago when your magic sky pixie created the heavens and the earth. You guys believe we came from dirt and yet you say that people believe in scientific theories that they don't know are true. You believe the that great great great great grandma was a rib that came alive. Take away the Bronze-Age mythology and your theory looks very stupid
Fixed.
Big Bang = approx. 14-billion years ago.
Fundy Rule of Science #14: If no one saw it, it didn't happen. (Kind of shoots creationism in the ass, doesn't it?)
The 'God particle' has absolutely nothing to do with God.
And your right, take away the billion of years and the theory does look stupid. THAT'S BECAUSE IT TOOK BILLIONS OF YEARS YOU FUCKING TOOL
Sorry, maybe it's time for a break. These people are really pissing me off
First of all, try to keep you definition of Evolution straight. Either from rock (which is wrong) or from primordial components (which is true).
And being sculpted from clay and dirt isn't stupid?
Of course evolution would look stupid if the earth was only 6000 years old. Good thing the earth is 4.6 billion years old, which is more than enough time to allow for the kind of evolution we know to have taken place.
Nevermind the fact that evolution doesn't need abiogenesis in order to be true...
Here's the rule of thumb when dealing with scientific theories: If the only people who disagree with you are religious fundamentalists, your theory is probably the correct one.
Take away billions of years and your theory looks very stupid
Sure it does. But the "billions of years" (14.5 billion, BTW) have been proved by a number of independent means.
You guys believe we came from a rock and yet you say that people believe in a god that they do not know exsists.
Whether we came from rocks has nothing to do with the existence of God. You can't disprove evolution just by proving God exists. There's no reason why God couldn't exist and we came from rock, too. Proving God exists doesn't automatically prove all that bronze-age Arab goat-herder crap in the Bible about talking snakes and magic fruit trees is true.
If you "take away the billions of years"(by praying hard enough, I suppose) then what you are left with is creationism. Poof! Magic Man dunnit!
Yep, that's pretty stupid all right!
Galactus is amused, He's glad he did'nt devour us just then.
This is in Popular Mechanics?
Not Popular Godwin Mechanics?
Much of science relies upon drawing conclusions with the readibly available measurements and observations we can make in the present. Eyewitness accounts are not always necessary if there is enough factual support for the conclusion.
We believe that the first life (some form of primitive bacteria) formed billions of years from inert matter because it is not an infeasible scenario. Unless there is a magical separation between organic and inorganic matter that we are not aware of, it could occur eventually in that manner.
And your final sentence is idiotic. It is like saying that it is impossible to travel on foot from San Diego to New York City in a day, therefore it is impossible to travel between those two locations and people are just lying and trying to confuse you when bringing up measurements of time like "days", "weeks", "months", and "years". Obviously, they are just trying to hide the falsehood of their claims behind longer time spans, right?
2.7-2.5 billion years ago: first photosynthetic organisms (cyanobacteria)
.9-.6 billion years ago: Cambrian explosion, rise of "complex" animals
.065 billion years ago: end of the age of reptiles (KT boundary), rise of mammals
present: humans
(note: time may be slightly off, but you get the general idea)
Five "greats" in grandpa approximates...seven generations. At the average of say...40 years a generation (extremely prolonged separation), that would be 280 years ago.
2008-280=1728, or fifty years before the Revolution.
...Your math is a bit off, dear.
I really don't understand where this 'came from a rock' came from. I really don't get what that's supposed to mean, and I've only been hearing it for about a year or so. I know the lying xtians like to come up with strawman arguments that are then repeated ad nauseum, but really, which one of the lying asswipes came up with this one? Hovind?
Also, regarding the soup, what you have to understand is that it was Campbell's Chunky Style Primordial soup, so, you know, it actually had some substance to it...
I seriously feel sick to my stomach reading what these brain-dead morons come up with. I can't believe we're the same species.
You only assume what we believe plus science is all about CHECKING facts constantly, and if there are any deviations check them out too.
Religion is all about, here's the bible, do not question, ignore the contradictions.
Why is it that fundies can't spell?
We were all present at the Big Bang, just not in the form we have today.
Everything that is and ever will be was present at the time of the Big Bang, nothing has been added to the universe after the Big Bang, either in form of energy or in the form of matter.
Take away billions of years and your theory looks very stupid
I definitely agree here. If you take away billions of years, you wind up with a number like, oh, maybe 6000. Any claim that everything started 6000 years ago is bound to look very stupid!
... so, because nobody was there to see it happen, it didn't happen? Pretty flimsy logic, especially considering what Creationists believe in.
I've seriously got to admit, no wonder people find it hard to believe in a God when they hear religion dribbling this fake science crap.
Religion | Science, probably best that way. Definately doesn't work as Religion Science.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
