Yes, there are cities around the world which are built around the cottage industries which fabricate fossils for the geologist and anthropologist who is ever so eager to snatch them up and be assured of publishing and a promotion at the university.Contribution of Washington D.C. --
As used in science, a theory is an explanation or model based on observation, experimentation, and reasoning, especially one that has been tested and confirmed as a general principle helping to explain and predict natural phenomena.
Was Hubble a Jesuit? He has also been accredited with fathering the Big Bang Scam. The Jesuit Priest (I am not a Catholic or a fan of Jesuits) called it the Cosmic Egg.
The Jesuit never did expound on where the yolk of his Cosmic Egg originated. The Big Bang Scam does not explain where the material for the BB originated.
Yes, a few are Repubs but the vast majority are libs.
The alternative is God. What is so unscientific about that?
Which God?
Speaking of Christians as Neanderthals - Neanderthals were not the clumsy cave dwellers once thought - new computer simulations show they were as nimble-fingered as their human cousins. This is from an atheist website (just to make you comfortable) http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn3555
I advise Mr. Clarke to abandon the blog and go back to yelling at people on street corners.
You haven't read it all (including links) have you, yawner?
Time to wake up. You're not in public school any more.
The bold and caps are not random. Neither is the formation of the universe.
A board from the Ark? Poetic.
That's a good one.
No. And Hubble did NOT "father the Big Bang". He merely provided the first scientific observations to verify it.
From Wikipedia:
"In 1927, the Belgian Jesuit priest Georges Lemaître independently derived the Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker equations and proposed, on the basis of the recession of spiral nebulae, that the universe began with the "explosion" of a "primeval atom"—what was later called the Big Bang.
"In 1929, Edwin Hubble provided an observational basis for Lemaître's theory. Hubble proved that the spiral nebulae were galaxies and measured their distances by observing Cepheid variable stars. He discovered that the galaxies are receding in every direction at speeds (relative to the Earth) directly proportional to their distance. This fact is now known as Hubble's law (see Edwin Hubble: Mariner of the Nebulae by Edward Christianson)."
Re: "Why would you need an alternate theory just because one theory is wrong?"
That's what the neo-communists/progressives/democrats +terrorists say about the USA. "Why do we need an alternative way of running things? Our endless set of complaints about how the USA/capitalism is not perfect prove that the USA has to be brought down. The default=alternative is not something we have to defend, just accept it."
Please ! There are 2 Creation stories and 2 Noah's Ark stories in Genesis . Each of the stories contradict the other (in most details) because they were written by different people at different times (J+E). One was written in the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the other in the southern kingdom of Judah, both as competing stories, after the Kingdom split. You can't possibly claim that these stories explain anything about nature.
YAWN!!!!!!
While you bore me...
They are a lot more plausible than evolution! We're descended from apes??? I'm not.
I understand the professor rather not endanger his job by allowing for any criticism of evolution. My post states that Intelligent Design need not be taught in the schools. Did your read that professor? Only allow for some criticism, and offer a detailed account of how the Big Bang and its assorted stardust eventually formed human beings. You can offer no detailed explanation.
I don't need billlllllllions of years to say the obvious. The more time needed by ET allows for more fudging.
Oh, the Big Bang had a father? Who was he?
