Gamma-Ray Bursts Limit Life in Universe
by Brian Thomas, M.S. *
What are the odds that life somehow self-generated? Many experiments have shown that the likelihood of just the right chemicals combining by chance in just the right proportions, orientations, and sequences to form even the simplest cell on Earth is so close to zero that some origin-of-life researchers have punted the possibility to some distant unknown planet.1 But a new study of gamma-ray burst frequency estimates has eliminated the possibility of life on other planets.
Astronomers have witnessed gamma-ray bursts (GRBs)—lasting from just fractions of a millisecond to several minutes—as the brightest explosions in the universe. The blasts' lethal energy output shreds any nearby biological molecules, whether in a functioning organism or somewhere in a planet's environment.

Assuming that biology is earth-like in nature.
Would it shred an angel apart?
Everything ever stated by anyone is absolutely untrue.
Absolutely nothing can be explained by anyone anywhere ever.
It’s a lot easier to believe that an intelligent Creator did it all, than to believe we just happened by accident..................
For all its intelligence and knowledge, ‘science’ cannot create a single living, functioning, reproducing cell from dead matter.................
Everything can be explained by Hollywood celebrities............
According to the site we should not even be able to detect Gamma Ray bursts as the closest one detected is 130 MM light years away. But I know the answer to that is the science behind measuring distances across the universe is somehow bunk too.
Including that statement. LOL!
THAT’S NOT TRUE.
"Wait until you see the end" you said.
“For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountains of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.”
Robert Jastrow, in “God and the Astronomers
Hulk smash puny Gamma Radiation Humans!
Totally false statements, utter garbage.
Improbability<>impossibility.
But thanks for playing. We have some lovely parting gifts.
From the article this is based on:
“There is a very good chance (but no certainty) that at least one lethal GRB took place during the past 5 Gyr close enough to Earth as to significantly damage life. There is a 50% chance that such a lethal GRB took place during the last 500 Myr causing one of the major mass extinction events.”
“Lethal” is defined as “life-threatening (lethal) GRB”. It does not mean to kill every living thing, only able to kill something.
The ICR article says this:
“Two astronomers, Hebrew University of Jerusalem’s Tsvi Piran and University of Barcelona’s Raul Jimenez, found that GRBs should have repeatedly sterilized most places in the universe, every so often annihilating any chemical concoction that may have been headed toward life. The new report appears in the online repository arXiv.org.2”
The article by the astronomers says nothing like that.
Including that statement. LOL!
But you state a truth but that cannot be true so it is not true and... *zoink*
