H2 is. ~70% of the atoms in the universe by mass, a much higher proportion by sheer number, are hydrogen. Most of rest are helium. There is simply not enough O in the universe to allow H2O to compete in frequency of occurrence.

H2 isn't a compound.

Yeah, that explains the 140 trillion times the Earth's water detected around a quasar 12 billion light years distant.

Quote:On 22 July 2011 a report described the discovery of a gigantic cloud of water vapor containing "140 trillion times more water than all of Earth's oceans combined" around a quasar located 12 billion light years from Earth. According to the researchers, the "discovery shows that water has been prevalent in the universe for nearly its entire existence".[16][17]

Did you miss out. Thunderf00t devoted part of his "Why do people laugh at creationists?" series to tearing him to pieces over it. As did dprjones, who coined the name "Lunar Bukkake theory".

Nephy even went as far as to say we would find fossilised sea life on the Moon, deposited by Noah's flood hitting the surface. I wish I was joking.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I'll have to check out the Laugh at Creationists series.
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

Having two of the same in a chemical bound is enough. Big Grin.

There was a time when the earth was completely/near completely covered in water.

Yeah, I saw that film too. I couldn't take my eyes off Kevin Costner's CGI toupée.
