Comets Likely Origin of Life. Creationists Slit Wrists. |

Oops, it appears that those pesky NASA missions like Deep Impact are
providing increasing evidence that complex organic substances existed
even longer than the Earth and could be the origin of materials that
jumpstarted life. Furthermore, "radioactive elements can keep water in
liquid form in comet interiors for millions of years, making them
potentially ideal 'incubators' for early life."
As with all scientific advancement, this is bad news for creationists.
Of course, they will just lie and say that Satan put those organic
compounds on comet to *hoodwink* us and that God must be "testing our
faith".

Or claim that 'God' made the evidence point to a comet in order to make
'foolish the wisdom of the world' (I Cor. 1:20). In other words, make things
*deliberately* appear to contradict reality and the bible in order to
produce unsubstantiated 'faith'. That's called being an '*Intelligent*
Designer'.

Meant to say, 'in order to make reality *deliberately* appear to contradict
the bible ... '
What can I say? This unrelenting stress has turned my brain into mush.
Anyone up for running out and loving Jesus?

Or...
God has a bunch of kids we don't know about, and those kids got busy
making mischief with a science kit they got for their.... uh... let's
say birthday. When they heard dad thundering down the hallway (since
he's a thundering kind of guy) to inspect their bedroom before dinner,
the kiddies threw the blobs of experiments out the window, slimy stuff
in rock and all that. Since they have great genes(theoretically
perfect?), it was a very fast throw and went very far. Millions of
years later, the garbage they tossed out the window evolved, and found
a big host.
Earth.
And the rest is our history.
God has no clue this even happened, and doesn't go out much so he'll
never find us even by accident. Could be 500 universes away. The kids
forgot all about it before the first course.
Damn kids.

Makes to sense to me! Can't *disprove* it either. But now the big question:
Do we get down on our hands and knees and worship and adore the 'kids' or
their unmarried 'Pa' for having 'sired' our 'creators' out of wedlock?
I think I'll go 'pray' about that one and see what 'God' has to say about

just hope that 'God' raised his children to be honest and not try and hide

Or...
Worship the ones who made that science kit, it's even more vague and a
deeper plotline of *****.
Those that made the science kit had a plan, unbeknownst to the divine
kiddies who fulfilled the plan.
Then 600 years after that divine out-the-window-genesis event is
agreed as our true beginnings and the holy science kit provider is the
agreed prime deity, some infidel will start a new religion with the
kiddies as the true god. There will be wars fought between the kiddy
and kitty factions. Needless to say, the kitty faction will have a
technological edge but the kiddy side adapts quickly with boundless
fanatacism and sneaky brutal tactics.
By then, far far away, the divine daddy has godzheimers, spending his
days drooling into a golden neck-tray. Never truly recognized by
anyone as the top guy, he has now been de-deitied, mumbling
incoherently with the occaisional claps of thunder blowing out his
*****.
Meanwhile, the kiddy and kitty factions split into delusional (even
moreso) subgroups, such as the kitty religion sectarians are devoted
to different departments of the Divine Science Kit Manufacturer, with
new false deities created out of Sales, CEO, R&D, Production,
Security, Shipping & Receiving, Engineering has at least 2 itself, IT,
HR and QA. The kiddy religion splits into sectarian groups as well,
themed by adolescent interests like Skateboarding, Hip Hop, Substance
Abuse, Arguing For No Apparent Reason, Droopy Drawers(closest to
Skaters and often cooperates if it is beneficial but always ends in
squabbles) they include hat-backwards and hat-forwards sub-factions.
And so on.
But they are all deluded and going to hell.
I have the one true god..... the window.
That's why Bill Gates is so rich, he's the unwitting prophet (no
coincidence- pronounced like PROFIT), he Excels at spreading the Word
and wants Access for all (at preordained prices).
Amen.
I think I'll go 'pray' about that one and see what 'God' has to say about
all this. Ooops! That would give away the little tots, wouldn't it? Let's
just hope that 'God' raised his children to be honest and not try and hide
their playing 'God'.

Oops, it appears that those pesky NASA missions like Deep Impact are
providing increasing evidence that complex organic substances existed
even longer than the Earth and could be the origin of materials that

As with all scientific advancement, this is bad news for creationists.
Of course, they will just lie and say that Satan put those organic
compounds on comet to *hoodwink* us and that God must be "testing our

Doesn't that mean that god and satan are really in cahoots?

Synthesis of progressively more complex organics can be driven
by on and off pulses of ionizing energy -- night and day cycles of
an already organically rich comet rotating in near vicinity of a
star.

Personally, I find the hypothesis to be rather dodgy. I just don't see how
organic molecules would have a better chance of forming on bodies outside
the earth (or proto-earth) than they would terrestrially. It just doesn't
make much sense to me.

If it survived being encased in rock, it should not have any problem

It is becoming apparent that their may be more bacteria at depths of

You could be right, (actually you are right about the part that no
sooner has anybody said that something is impossible, than we find
it) however ...
They are supposed to arrive from space, not from another planet
where they have evolved for billions of years.
I have not seen any explanation about "life arrived from space"
that does not have at least as many new questions as it have
alleged answers. That does not mean that there are no such
explanation :-)
It also does not change the question "How did life start?" It only
changes the place where it happened.
