"I thought the original question whas "where does wind come from?"

It was the original question, but things like atmosphere and gases, etc. were used to formulate the answer, so I think that moved it to the next question, "Where did matter come from?" Which leads to (ultimately, from the evolution POV) the question, "Where did the BB come from." Or, possibly more cogently, "How did the energy necessary for the BB to occur organize itself?"

OH MY! The whole 1953 Gish whale thang was proved wrong?? I guess I'll become an evolutionist now because I'm sure none of their half-baked ideas have been wrong.

"It's all like that."

"All" is one of those words that my dad used to warn me to be careful of because it has a tendency to ricochet. You've read "all" of ICR's stuff?

"Theories and laws are two different critters and the one doesn't turn into the other. A scientific theory is an explanation whereas a scientific law is a mathematical description of an observed regularity."

Thank you! Now that's info I can use! (I did indeed have a tendency to think that a theory eventually becomes a law once it's validated.)

Speaking of math, I've been meaning to ask if anyone remembers the name of the mathematician involved in the OJ trial who was humiliated so horribly by those 'Rat lawyers trying to get OJ off? I need his name for something else I'm working on. Thanks.

I suppose not. Who was it who said, "You don't have to eat a whole omelet to tell it's got a bad egg?"

But the answer to the question "where does matter come from?" in no way addresses the causes of wind.
We observe the phenomenon 'wind' whether our universe was created or not.
So what do you think, what causes wind?

I truly wish I could read everything people give me or send me or provide links to not to mention all the things I prefer to read! I don't own a TV, so I do have lots of time for reading (thanks be to God! hehehe), but it does get overwhelming. All that to say that I do have to be discriminating in what I read; things out of Berkeley are not on the list. I think I mentioned that some of the things Berkeley teaches is credible. What LDV thinks about the flood is very intelligent and scientific and coherent and all and I've added what little I know about it to the mix, but it does nothing to overturn the evidences for the flood.

I don't propose anything for punishment for blasphemy; God will deal with that, my friend.

"Venerable Geezer."

Is this the meaning of a back-handed compliment (no disrespect to the elderly! hehehe)

"New critters are dug up, brushed off and placed into the puzzle on a daily basis."

Yes, dug up! Not necessarily new. My first love in this whole "prove it" thang is archeology.
