Do you think life exists elsewhere in the universe?

[QUOTE=RoseCity07]I love how when someone tells me they are religious they think it gives them more credibility. I'm likely to stop reading what you wrote if you write something like, "I'm religious but...":oldlol:

It's like saying, "I'm not that much of a thinker, but you should listen to me".[/QUOTE]


You had by far the most ignorant, naive, and flat out embarrassing contributions in this thread. Every time you make another post it gets worse.

It's always very easy to tell who actually thinks about what they've learned, and who just goes around repeating it to show off. Usually those are the people who are so dumb they can't even actually repeat it correctly.

You are one of those people.

You seriously questioned nucleosynthesis. Your argument was that I learned about it from watching a movie about it.:oldlol: How desperate are you for people to take you seriously? Your parents must have ignored you as a child.

Let me explain it to you. The number protons in the nucleus of an atom determine the identity of the element. If you could fuse together 79 hydrogen atoms (1 proton each) you would have gold. This happens in stars. The sun is a star.

Our sun will never produce anything as heavy as gold and silver you fakkit, and even IF it could it wouldn't happen until very late in its lifetime. Thus, none of the "gold and silver and iron in our blood" was produced by our sun you ****ing rube, our sun right now "produces" nothing but helium and perhaps insignificant traces of light elements that do not coalesce into planets :facepalm You were basically wrong two times in one sentence.

You tried to drop scientific knowledge and managed to screw up a simple concept in practically half a dozen ways within one sentence. And then proceeded to pretend you had somehow TKO'd religion by absolutely butchering a simply theory of cosmology you heard and tried to repeat.

Moreover your simplistic and cringe-worthy guarantee of extra terrestrial life in the universe solidified you as a certified FOLLOWER of those who preach concepts to you which you take for granted without analyzing or critiquing. You are exactly what you claim to 'hate' and you are a completely AVERAGE human who rationalizes himself while condemning others of the same casting because you utterly lack self awareness. You and fundamentalists are simply m&m's of different colors. Frivolous exterior distinction, exactly the same inside. You are not an intellectual leader, but a PURE BRED FOLLOWER.

Your lack of self awareness is truly a thing to behold. The smugness with which you bleet your uncritiqued dogma juxtaposed against what an actual jackass you sound like to everyone but yourself makes me want to stand up and :applause: like that .gif of the Rock and then take a baseball bat and do this :hammerhead: to you immediately afterward.

You are an imposter of the highest order.

You are without a doubt the biggest try hard wannabe intellectual I've ever seen on this bored. I doubt you've even taken a high school chemistry course. I don't care to read what you read in your young earth creationists pamphlet.

You creationists are hilarious. You think because you read a Yahoo Answers post you're some f*cking scholar now?:oldlol: You tried to pull out a quote from Socrates like we're going to think you're some Harvard professor now.:oldlol:

Do you even know how to read you f*cking you troll? I said there is almost certainly life in the universe. Even if there is a single celled organism living in your mom's v*gina it is a form of life. After all, you're here aren't you? Whether that life evolves to the level that humans have I don't know.

Religion is the most nonsensical load of bullshit humanity has ever created. It's the shame of humanity. There has never been any evidence that the universe or the earth was created by a god. Believing in what you hope is true does not make it true. What matters is evidence. If you're going to come up with an explanation for how the universe was created you better come up with more than "god must have done it". I've really wasted too much time writing to a sh*t stain like you.

Fakkit got EXPOSED and started to cry.

He even applied his go-to political strawman when he's made a fool of himself and has no logic to stand on ("yerrrr racissttttt!!!!") and used it in a scientific argument (yerrr creationsstttt!!!!") :oldlol:


Fortunately, that proved my point. You naturally assume that because I'm not on YOUR side of ignorance, that I'm on the opposite side. Your brain is too diminutive to realize there's more than just two choices. This is why you're a hardcore Democrat. You picked a little ant colony and you assume anyone who isn't a Democrat, must be a Republican. You are a sheep and a follower. You're not intelligent. You're mindless. You're posing and trying to flaunt your team colors of tolerance and science, but not because they are a means for you to learn and discover, but because they are an end for you to feel superior and validated. You do not have the tiniest [U]understanding[/U] of them. You're simply a bandwagoner, who thinks he knows but clearly doesn't have a clue. You literally could not even repeat a high school level astronomy fact correctly. :facepalm

How many episodes of House have you watched this week?:roll: Seriously? Now you're trying to play the Hugh Laurie role of breaking me down with some psuedo-psychology. :oldlol: Is that what you do? You go onto message boards and accuse people of being everything you hate about yourself?

You aren't even good at it kid. I know your game and it's so tired. Putting other people down doesn't make people respect you. I doubt you've ever voiced your opinions in a college class room. You wouldn't dare be this arrogant in front of a professor. I'm glad you're getting it all out right here. I probably saved a small animal from being tortured to death. Come on, get it all out. I don't want someones dog to suffer because of you.

Hey man. YOU'RE the one who guaranteed there was extra terrestrial life somewhere in a universe you don't even [I]remotely[/I] understand, then called all creationists dumb WHILE pronouncing that our sun produced all the gold and silver on Earth. :oldlol: :oldlol:

I mean... I just laughed and pointed out how stupid you are.

If you're looking for someone to blame here... I think you're gonna need to consult the man in the mirror on this one.


And I've never watched an episode of "House" in my life. I spend that kind of time actually considering these subjects in depth, while you simply obtain a superficial "understanding" (which you can't even manage) so that you can show off to everyone how much smarter u are than teh religulous peeple. Apparently the rest of the time you spend watching network dramas. Hey, it just is what it is. You're a fugazi, and I'm just callin it like it is. It's alright bro. Jesus will forgive you. It's even in the beatitudes, "Blessed are the fake intellectual retards, for they will inherit all the gold and silver produced in the sun."


I'm goin to bed, Akrazotile out!

So because I read that elements such as gold and silver form in stars, and I assumed that must mean our sun, that makes me stupid? You can't even make a simple correction? To you, the person made the biggest mistake:oldlol:

What is your deal with telling people that they are just repeating what they read? Are you f*cking retarded or something. That is how most people learn. Repeating what you read is not something to put down.

I guess my calc ii professor is going to write on my final, "answers are right but just repeating Taylor Polynomial def and Simpson's def. That problem, you learned that trig substitution from reading. Using integration by parts, not okay, you learned that from reading...all half credit sorry LOL"

I love satire. I'm a bit of a contrarian myself. You creationists really do believe the goofy shit you write. I don't think I'll ever understand people like you or how your brain works.

I believe we can't comprehend how huge the universe is, both in terms of size and time. If there is life out there both of those factors will stop us from ever crossing paths with other life.

First of all, one would probably have to travel for hundreds of years at the speed of light. Secondly, life on earth will only last for a small blink. There could already have been life searching for us or life that will search for us in the future, but they could miss us by millions of years in the short timespan man walks the earth.

I think the universe is one of those things that we think we know what the hell we're talking about with the evidence we have, but in the broad reality of things it's no where near close to what we think we know. Just like apparently in the billions the of years the earth has seemingly been around, humans have lived on it only a fraction of a fraction of time. We thought everything revolved around the Earth, and we thought the earth was flat. In the end I think it's just one of those things where seemingly the more answers we get, we get twice as many questions.

Personally, I like to think and understand what we know is a very, very small part of the picture. Maybe when we look up at the sky and we feel so small because everything is so big is because it is that way.

Maybe the atoms of my body are small universes and the actual understanding of them are bigger than I know.

All I know for sure is I'm thankful that I get to experience what we call life. I love the challenge of life, the hardship, the joy of having a daughter, the experience of love and hate. It's all a delicate balance we try to do every day we wake up as the star dust that goes throughtout my body gets older and older until the day I'm not here anymore.

In the end when I'm on my deathbed I will worry less about if there is life somewhere else in some other part of our universe or some part of a multi-verse, and more so about what I experienced in my short gift of life.

Being religious or not has nothing to do if someone's arguments are good or not. You sound just like any other bigot.

I guess guys like Charles Taylor, Freeman Dyson, Alvin Plantinga, John Polkinghorne, Rodney Stark, Christian Smith, John Lennox, Francis Collins (and many others) are not "that much of thinkers".

I don't know that Akrazotile guy, but he is right in a lot of things. The easiest way to pretend to be smart is to say you are an atheist and mock religion all the time. Since you don't seem too have much knowledge of science, philosophy and so on, you use the atheist anti religion persona to create a false image of an intelectual.

I'm not sure there are lot smart atheists and anti theists guys. But just being one does not make one smart. You are the living proof of that.

PS: Before anyone asks. No, I'm not saying religion is true because those guys are religious.

Bingo. Bill Maher is a perfect example. Mr anti-vaccines guy. I admit he is funny sometimes though.

WTF you talking about, Rose City knows there's life in other parts of the Universe. Signed, sealed, delivered. He's liek teh expert on askronomy. He's guaranteed it and that's good enough for me bc the man's mind is worth its weight in gold produced by the sun.

You are one dumb generic f*ck if you don't believe there are life on other planets.

Ofc, I'm one of the extreme ufologist around here: not only do I believe the universe is teaming with life, but I also believe aliens have visited this planet and there are life on Mars as well.
