#533098 — Water may have been a part of our planet's history since the beginning.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/earths-water-old_56460271e4b08cda348867ea

"An international team of scientists has found new evidence that water may have been a 
fundamental part of Earth since its beginning some 4.5 billion years ago."


"..water has been on Earth since its formation -- and new research indicates they might be right."



These science guys find themselves always going
back to...


'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 
Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.'




Maybe they should be investigating where those words come from.

This is been known for ages, thousands of years ago, stays written also in 
ancient scriptures. Modern Science just to start read and reread.

They were written by men with strange beliefs. Perhaps they'd been

Did they have any way of making spirits?  Since they didn't have
*any* access to freeze-distillation, they would have had to
invent standard distillation with heat and a condenser, like
Martin Padway in the sixth century.  Did they?

G. K. Chesterton says somewhere that compared to the other
creation myths we find hanging about, with dragons to be slain
and giants to be dissected *before* the earth is created, Genesis
1 sounds a lot more reasonable.

To say nothing of the not-standard Hindu creation myth in which
the earth is created out of butter churned out of a huge sea of
milk, and the Finnish one in which a sky goddess, being lonely,
falls into the sea, where she drifts around still beling lonely
for centuries until she lays some eggs which become the
continents.

I'm trying to remember which mythos it was where the Earth was created 
by a God having a bowel movement.  One of the ones from India IIRC.

That one, I managed to have missed.  I did once read one in which
one of the goddesses starts knitting, and when she's done rolls
it all up into a ball, throws it into the void, and creates the
world.

Abd L. Sprague de Camp once wrote a short poem about how the
Sumerians believed the gods created mankind while they were
drunk.

That would explain much . . .

Aristotle appears to have known of the process around 300 BC--there's no 
reason to believe that he invented it.

Genesis does contain two somewhat conflicting versions of the same story.

I find the Big Bang Theory very little better. They're all OK until you 
start thinking "Who create Him?" or "What caused this to happen?" or 
"What was it like before?".

   The evidence supporting the BB comes from many corners of astronomy,
   general relativity and the standard model.

   Why the Universe might have come from nothing

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heisenberg%27s_uncertainty_principle
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8FTr2qMutA

   Heisenberg's uncertainty principle tells us that it is
   impossible to simultaneously measure the position and
   momentum of a particle with arbitrary precision. In our
   everyday lives we virtually never come up against this
   limit, hence why it seems peculiar. In this experiment a
   laser is shone through a narrow slit onto a screen. As the
   slit is made narrower, the spot on the screen also becomes
   narrower. But at a certain point, the spot starts becoming
   wider. This is because the photons of light have been so
   localised at the slit that their horizontal momentum must
   become less well defined in order to satisfy Heisenberg's
   uncertainty principle.

Quantum vacuum fluctuation (or Quantum Fluctuation for short)
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_fluctuation

Quoting from the above Wikipedia page:

   "In quantum physics, a quantum vacuum fluctuation (or
   quantum fluctuation or vacuum fluctuation) is the temporary
   change in the amount of energy in a point in space, arising
   from Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

   "According to one formulation of the principle, energy and
   time can be related by the relation

       ∆E · ∆t ≥ h/4π

   "That means that conservation of energy can appear to be
   violated, but only for small times. This allows the creation
   of particle-antiparticle pairs of virtual particles. The
   effects of these particles are measurable, for example, in
   the effective charge of the electron, different from its
   "naked" charge.

   "In the modern view, energy is always conserved, but the
   eigenstates of the Hamiltonian (energy observable) are not
   the same as (i.e., the Hamiltonian doesn't commute with) the
   particle number operators.

   "Quantum fluctuations may have been very important in the
   origin of the structure of the universe: according to the
   model of inflation the ones that existed when inflation
   began were amplified and formed the seed of all current
   observed structure."

Quoting from A USENET Posting by Steve Carlip (UC Davis):

   "CMB fluctuations give evidence for (though not proof of)
   inflation.

   "So far, I haven't said anything about where the initial
   density variations of the pre-recombination plasma came
   from. There are many possibilities. We know, at least, that
   they must be there -- even if we try to start with a
   perfectly smooth, unvarying plasma, the Heisenberg
   uncertainty principle tells us that there must be a minimum
   level of quantum fluctuations.

        ∆E · ∆t ≥  h/4π

   "Inflationary" models propose that the very early Universe
   -- before the time of primordial nucleosynthesis --
   underwent a very rapid expansion. Such an expansion would
   smooth out/dilute any earlier inhomogeneities, leaving only
   the quantum fluctuations, which would be "stretched" in size
   by the rapidly expanding space.

   "Such models predict a special pattern of fluctuations. In
   particular, although any particular fluctuation is random,
   the average number at any particular scale is predictable.
   This pattern on initial variations, in turn, should show up
   in the details of the CMB variations. So far, observations
   match the predictions of inflation very well. Most people in
   the field don't consider this conclusive -- one can imagine
   other ways of getting a similar pattern of initial
   perturbations -- but it is suggestive."

Do You know, how much evidence phlogiston theory
collected during 100 years it was believed?

   Did the phlogiston theory turn out to be correct?

   Why not?

My question was first.

It is you who makes that connection

the science is clear and requires no god

you get "science" from the huffington post?  that clearly marks you as 
an idiot

the STUDY was published in 2014. you may be able to understand this 
write up.... but who knows what an idiot will understand

I'm not sure I understand why anybody would think that water was not 
primordial.  Most of the universe is hydrogen and almost half the mass 
of Earth's crust is oxygen so it would be very surprising if a certain 
percentage of that oxygen was _not_ bound with hydrogen.
