    It wasn't.....

    Rather inconveniently stars take a fair while to form. But we can observe stars at every stage of their life, astronomy has done a lot to back up astrophysics/cosmology. Read about star formation.

    The events of the Big Bang led to the creation of the most fundamental element, the Hydrogen atom. The rest were primarily created through Nuclear Fusion when stars formed at a later date and a select few others through Nuclear Fission as the massive elements formed in very hot stars decayed into smaller daughter elements.
  4. Born Hunter
    No I don't think they came about simultaneously. Creating elements through Nuclear Fusion and Fission has been proven experimentally. And what we see of the observable universe fits the theory of Cosmic 'evolution' very nicely.
  5. Born Hunter
    Hilarious joke...... Nuclear fusion, The Big Bang.
  6. Born Hunter
    In the simple classical model it's a single electron orbiting a single proton. But the Hydrogen atom is the most fundamental element which is what the periodic table lists. You said they all 'evolved' from Uranium, which was clearly a dig at the big bang theory on the evolution of the Universe and more importantly completely wrong. All elements 'evolved' from Hydrogen!

    You of course mean Hydrogen.....

    Oh, can't you tell? It started on a topical news event, the torched Jordanian, rapidly moved to the horrors of Islam, then to the horrors of immigration, then post Hiroshima Japan and their foreign/defence policy, then ermmmm I forget...... and before we know it we're talking about the philosophical and biological future of the human species. I'm sure there was some Zionism talk in there somewhere too! Pretty standard General Talk thread.... Keep up!

    Spoken like a true keeper! Lol......thing is mate since I've stopped all that I've got a different approach. Was putting the dogs away the other night when I saw a dog chasing a vixen about in my field. Instead of rushing in for the .222 I just watched them......wtf...lol Careful, you'll be eating quorn sausages next and braiding your hair.

    I know that the criteria of breeding has changed, but that does not change the fact that the 'old' laws of natural selection as you call them are still valid today. Off on a tangent, could this experimentation on keeping people alive be a plot by the elite to find the elixir of everlasting life? So finally we agree, natural selection still applies! Lol. Just the criteria is different. As it is for every other species that undergoes an environmental change.
  13. Born Hunter
    Yes of course. Parasitic no hopers with weak minds and terrible genetics can and do breed like f**k while excellent human specimens and the peak of physical and mental ability are too driven by social success to settle and breed.... The laws of the natural world still apply, no less or more strictly, just differently.... We are as much a part of this natural world as a polar bear, no matter how removed we feel.
  14. Born Hunter
    The very fact that we believe we are genetically compromising ourselves as a species proves natural selection is still taking place! Without it there would be no change at all, there couldnt be as its the only mechanism for species level change. Just because we are smart enough to think that we are adapting genetically in a way that poorly suits the world away from modern society/medicine does not mean we are no longer subject to nature's law.
  15. Born Hunter
    That's just not true. The old criteria for selection no longer apply, the law of natural selection still very much applies. Again, we seem to think we are somehow special and separate to nature.
  16. Born Hunter
    We are no longer subject to natural selection imo. When babies that would have died through some genetic malfunction, so as not be able to pass it on, are artificially kept alive through modern medicine only to breed and propagate the same genetic malfunction in their children. Is that good for the species? TC But you're judging us now by old selection criteria. In an environment devoid of medicine, those babies would die. In this new environment they don't. That doesn't defy natural selection, it's still happening. To say we're no longer subject to this natural law is like saying were no
  17. Born Hunter
    You reckon tc? I don't know if there is a genetic point of no return but we are still subject to natural selection, just in a new environment. As a species we have great diversity, faced with our old environment natural selection would simply do what is needed. We'd adapt, after shedding all the unsuitable genetics from the gene pool. People should have more faith in us imo. How do you explain the large families produced by poor examples of humans, being maintained and encoured to reproduce by humans who have smaller families. Not exactly good for the species. In our development of advan

LOL, id rather pull teeth! So, suddenly the laws of nature don't

    Ha! Did you cry when you found out the dinosaurs got wiped out? Like I said, in the grand scheme of things, we can't do f**k all that nature can't put right. And in the bigger picture all the critters you see now will most likely be gone and replaced by others in a relatively short time. Nature doesn't give a f**k if one species wipes out another. In fact those are the laws she created! No favourite, no prejudices. What I will find sad is if we destroy ourselves. Because we sure as shit can't destroy nature.
  21. Born Hunter
    The fact that our actions wipe out whole species is to some extent f***ing up nature. Making the planet uninhabitable for us, will unfortunately destroy much of our present eco system and many of the flora and fauna associated. If we carry on as we are, I very much doubt we will be around for thousands of years let alone millions. But so what? Mother nature wipes out species every day, we're a product of nature and play by her rules. In a few dozen million years the earths life will look completely different again, with or without our influence. And yet we fret about keeping everything const
  22. Born Hunter
    Sad and boring for us. Mother nature will start her experiment over again and in a cosmic blink of an eye have a planet bustling with new life. All this, environmentalism matters little to her, it's us it matters to. We're only f***ing ourselves.
  23. Born Hunter
    Not that I know f**k all but seeing as you have a quarry list as varied as a bag of pick n mix its probably worth remembering the yanks have killed just about everything in north America with their beloved 30-06 springfield. But f**k it, get with the movement and buy a 25-06! And supplement that with a 375 H&H magnum. LOL LOL

    David Attenborough's quote is spot on. It makes me laugh when folks say we are killing the planet, f***ing up nature etc. We are a product of nature and you bet your hairy bollocks nature will wipe us from existence if we don't play our cards with a bit of savvy. We can't do f**k all to harm the world in the grand scheme of things, we can do a catastrophic amount of damage to our selves though. But hey, species die out every damn day, does anybody really think 'mother nature' gives a flying f**k about us or what harm we do? Millions of years from now if all the doom sayers are right and we

    85% f**k there are some obscure elements and some that I swore were compounds.
