thanks for bringint that up.

Quote:How did lightning and thunder, along with the vital life supporting lightning-nitrogen cycle, evolve?
No one Evolutionist strikes the same answer twice.
Lightning is like the 100 or so non-living elements on earth. How they came to exist in the first place is a complete mystery to evolutionists.
Here’s a couple of theories about the original cause and evolution of lighting from chats I have been having with some seriously minded Evolutionists:
“I’ve been out of active meteorological research for some time but I keep an interested eye on the field. Lightning was probably triggered by energy in the flux of cosmic rays to Earth and cosmic ray fluxes vary in time.” (Physicist, Holwick, UK)
“It started out with single volt lightnings that spontaneously appeared, and after millions of years of chance they’re now millions and millions of volts, and contain multiple branches, and evolved thunder as a defence mechanism. Oh and the Nitrogen Cycle is a distant ancestor of these primitive 1 Volt lightnings. By chance it became the nitrogen cycle over a trillion years. I’m an Atheist, Hail Satan.” (Software Developer, Nuneaton, UK)
Really? …can you pick the basic flaws in these theories? Why not drop me an email.
No laboratory lightning experiment has ever produced life from non-life.
Quote:How did modern species come about? They evolved from other organisms.
You take that on faith, don't you ?
Quote:How did matter come about? It formed from energy in the early universe as it cooled.
and where did the energy come from ?
Quote:How did stars come about? Gravity.
and you know that how exactly ? or is it just a statement of faith ?
Quote:How did all the elements form? From fusion in stars.

Quote:The way some scientists talk about planet formation, one would think that the process was easy:
‘Our solar system was built from the dust of dead stars. It’s an often-repeated fact.’1
A proposed theory of planet formation from accreted stellar material. Remnants from an exploded star produce the raw material. Though this material is thought to accrete through gravitational interaction, the effect of gravity is too small to allow this to happen in the timeframe proposed by evolution. There is also the question as to whether the small particles would coalesce under the influence of gravity at all.
Planet formation is just one of the many hypothetical evolutionary processes that started with the big bang and ended with humans on Earth after many billions of years. Since planets exist, evolutionists reason they ‘must’ have formed from a dust cloud called a nebula. The dust must first develop from dead stars because dust does not just develop from gas molecules. So the dust is believed to have ‘evolved’ from the explosion of a star in a supernova. Hence our solar system is believed to be the result of a collapsed dust cloud from an exploded star. These are the simple naturalistic deductions, assuming evolution is the only mechanism.
Many people are satisfied with this scenario and take it no further. But if an inquiring person were to ask how the planets actually formed from the dust, he would get a surprising answer:
‘But if you ask how this dust actually started to form planets, you might get an embarrassed silence. Planets, it seems, grow too fast—no one knows why the dust clumps together so quickly’
Quote:Those are just a few of the questions naturalism has answered.
It has answered it , but without hard compelling evidence. These are all answers held by faith.
Quote:naturalism works, it has worked numerous times.
If you want to believe its postulates, it " works ". But if it reflect reality, the truth, well thats quit a other chapter......
Quote:I'm a naturalist because it works.
no, because you WANT to believe it........
