This is based on a theory which postulates, that sometime after the big-bang, and as energy was converted into matter, which then produced the first elements (the food for the gods) which were hydrogen, and small amounts of helium. These elements then combined to form super massive stars. This is believed to be the way most galaxies were formed, including our own galaxy. These massive stars were highly unstable, and very short-lived; and it is believed, that they died in a super massive explosion, that spewed out new elements and matter, that then became trapped by its own gravity, after its core had collapsed, and created a black-hole.
This new matter would then coalesce and form smaller, but more stable stars, including our own sun. All of the planets, comets and asteroids, and most everything else in our solar system; was created in the birth of our sun. And all the elements, which makeup the atoms, of which all life on this planet are comprised of, were all made in the birth, life, and death of those stars.
When a Christian asks me, if I don’t believe in “god,” then who do you think made you? I simply tell them; that we were all made from stars; and the fact is that our sun has a father in heaven (the proto-star, which created our galaxy, in its death) that died so we could live. This in turn, allowed all life on this planet to begin. And I tell them, that in essences; we are all just made from the shit that stars vomited-up, eons ago while dying.
In our quests to understand the meaning of life, and how we and everything else came into being; we can only look to science to find the truths. Science has, and will always strive to increase our base of knowledge. And only through gaining a better understanding, of how things came into being; will we be able understand these questions, and find the true answers.
Could it be that most people know, that they can’t handle truth; and is this why they feel so comfortable believing myths, and fairytale stories, or did the reality, of the religious horrors, that they faced as children, of burning, roasting, and rotting in hell forever, leave them so mentally challenged and fearful, that they just won’t even consider, other possibilities?

From the scientific aspect, the more we learn about how energy interacts with matter, and of the physical properties in nature; we can learn how to better manipulate both to our advantage. My vision is, as is most other scientist with an interest in this field, believes we can someday meet all of our energy needs, without continuing to destroy the planet’s suitability for life. See, we were at a crossroad in the late 70s; and instead of heeding the warnings, we continued business as usual. And now the only way life as we know it will go on, is if we start making big changes now. Just look at the attitudes of those like Bush and Palin; to them, this is just a big fucking-up of the earth party, until fucking Jesus “returns.”
Discovering how the universe came into being and our true place in it; would cause the greatest enlightenment in the history of mankind. And if only, even a small number of these ignorant sheep woke-up, and realized this is all we’ve got – soon people would start seeing just how shameful it is to be this ignorant. And maybe then, they would stop supporting and electing these ignorant fucking morons, who have no vision of a future.

The Christians don’t directly stand in the way of scientific progress, but they vote for complete morons like G. W. Bush, who are against, everything scientific.
The level of excitement that most hard core Christians feels over the thought of dyeing and then living with Jeebus in “heaven,” is just frightening; these ignorant morons have been walking around for 2000 years now, each generation believing, that they were living in the “end times.” That in its self stands in the way of anything, other than death
The only way were going to change the mind of those who have a brain left in their heads, is if we find the real truth through science. All the rest of those brain-dead ignorant morons and idiots would still not believe in earth-science, even if “god” himself landed here and told them too!

“It does sicken me how many christians will deny science and then wonder why they are being exploited by these big companies. The biggest problem with trying to get the more extreme religious really look at science for what it is, they have convinced themselves that anything that goes against their beliefs is from the devil. Look at a few of the comments from Gospel in the other entry and he was even willing to contradict his own views to keep his belief. I don't think there is any real hope for those that are that extreme in their beliefs. I would say that the best chance for advancing science is to aim at the moderate to liberal christians.”
Another major problem with some Christians is willful ignorant. When I was growing-up in the 70s, there were those who didn’t even care about leaning; their preachers were telling them that the world would be ending soon, and they’d all be with Jeebus in heaven. They would tell me how “stupid” I was for trying to learn science. They would say “all your knowledge won’t do you any good when you get to hell.” Today when I run into old friends and I ask them what happened to so and so; I have discovered that most of those same morons are either in prison, had OD from drugs, or have server mental issues.
I totally agree that we only have a chance of reaching the more moderate to liberal ones; however, this can only begin when they stop listing to the bat-shit crazy ones!

Yeah they can get a little upset when thing are said that poke holes in their beliefs. Can you figure out what this sign means. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BOZ1N0G2jCc/S5Gbru81GUI...
I believe what their saying is come and join us, we’re a pack of silly childlike ignorant Xtains, who refuse to grow-up and let go of our silly imaginary friends.
This is what happens when ones brain has been rotted by that mind-virus
