Colin Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 From the Shetland News web site. An opportunity to peddle junk science in favour of the creationist agenda or, something better than that? Comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooks Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Nobody, or indeed everybody, made the world. It is a creation in itself. Nobody made it, it has evolved. At the same time everybody made it because without the life and death of various organisms there would be no world today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Isn't there some book that came out a few years back called something like 'How the Scottish Invented the Modern World?' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nautim Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Why not try an alternative to creationism and evolution? Have a look at this website and why it was created - you'll enjoy it! (I hope) I thought it was the best laugh I'd had in ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the same time everybody made it because without the life and death of various organisms there would be no world today. i never understand why we are forsed to pick from the god made it or evolution. why cant we beleive both? perhaps god created the world through evolution? is does not say how long it took, how long is 1 of gods days last for ?perhaps a god day is millions of our years? in my book beleive both! they are far more importaint things happing today that people need to think or sort out withough arguing about the past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brace yourself.Take a step back from the earth, then from our solar-system, you see a small collection of particles rotating around a central particle. Step back further and you see our galalxy is a small bunch of rotating matter within a vast area of other rotating matter. Here's the rub. Step back further and all that matter appears very similar to sub-atomic and later atomic particles, see? So when you take the next step back you are now viewing the stuff that makes up the next "level" of universe.......the molecules, atoms and all that gubbins. It's generally accepted that our Universe is spherical, like it is accepted that atomic particles are spherical...so.... .....and when you step back from that one......it all starts again. Welcome to the terrifying world of infinity. Now go the other way, and the tiny subatomic particles that out brainiest physicists are trying to identify are just as likely ikkle tiny universes, galaxies, solarsytems and planets as you get closer and closer to them. Any questions? No? Good, i'm off. Bye. (and for the geeks - isn't it interesting how physicists strive to understand how subatomic matter winks in and out of existence, and yet are totally happy to accept that the Big Bang started our universe, hmm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowe Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 i mean how big is space? where does it stop or where does it end? and if it does end wots after that? or does it never end? but if it doesnt end then i jus cant understand. ahh its so annoyin!!Yes quite! This totally wrecks my head too. I can't bear to think about it! My brain is just way too small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
