I once saw God in the lab. Turns out I accidentally brushed a capacitor bank with my screwdriver, blacked out and woke up in a pool of my own saliva. Much better than waking up in a pool of somebody else's saliva, I guess.

"Most laypeople are unaware that life started immediately on the once molten earth.Ah, but how?
With all the advances which have led to our current understandings of the building blocks of life, and the conditions under which they assimilated, we've yet to achieve biogenisis, or the creation of life where none was before.
I don't think we ever will, either, since then we would necessarily understand the secret of life and death...which only God knows, and we are only human.

Thank you for the great article, yonif! betty boop, I believe this will interest you as well.

the friction was so great that the earth melted. Friction? Once again the sheer power of kinetic energy is overlooked.

Now this creation was a very small point, and from this all things that ever were or will be formed I was skimming the article and not taking it seriously when my attention was arrested by the above line.
It is a stunning realization.
And it may be far more profound than most or all modern physicists realize.

I always thought the impact from numerous meteorites and radioactive decay heat melted the ROCK called Earth into a molton globe .

If the verse were "In the beginning," Rashi points out, the Hebrew would have been Be'reshona and not Bereishit. Does a Bereishit in the forest?

Most laypeople are unaware that life started immediately on the once molten earth. That would depend on one's definition of "immediately." If the author really considers "immediately" to mean 300,000,000 years, that seems an immoderate immediate.

I believe the surface was rendered molten during the accretion phase. The weight of the planet eventually grew enough so pressure liquified the interior as well, which is not the case with the moon. The core heat was maintained to this day by interior radioactivity.

I believe in the big bang theory of creation.
God spoke the Word and BANG! the universe came into existence.

In the beginning from total and absolute nothing, the Creator brought forth a substance so thin it had no corporeality. But this substanceless substance could take on form. This was the only physical creation. Now this creation was a very small point, and from this all things that ever were or will be formed...
Is the "only physical creation" synonymous with the creation of physics? From the void... voila. What's the point of the very small point?

A point is the beginning of everything. It is the departure from the unmanifested and the beginning of manifestation. A point has no existence, but it is the source from which dimensions come: on-ness, in-ness, through-ness, and presence. All matter builds within a point....by point, by line, by angle, by surface, by curve.... The circle is completion and completness. And then, maybe not.

Actually in a fluctuating - expanding universe ... all circles are manmade artificial constructs --- spirals only !
Why pi - time is ... infinite --- eternal (( eventually )) !
