You are absolutely dishonest & evading the essence of the question, which is not whether an immortal being takes a nap and 20,000 centuries pass but why create life on just one of trillions of planets? I'm not going to repeat the question but leave to more an observation why fundies as yourself are dangerous pretenders & cannot ever be trusted or respected to make even the most tiny leaps of imagination and will always improperly frame what we have learned thru science. Yours is a fringe world of blind ignorance & appeal to emotions which seem to rarely include inclusion, inspiration or love.

I don't need pinhead pretenders like you or the one in your article to tell me or anyone else what is possible or impossible thank you. This is not just a pretty picture only but corrsesponds to an event that was recorded as observed by astronomers simultaneously 1200yrs ago from China to Europe that described its light as viewable for 7days and that during the day. Quite something since we now estimate this as 7,000 light years away . We have learned now fantastic discoveries , what true dimensions are & how far back in stages things go, as far back as to one beginning among many other beginnings which this Nebula is a newest one. We can now precisely measure how large the progenitor star that made this Super Nova was at 11 solar masses, beyond your comprehension, and there are stars even larger. Do you even know the calculous of how we arrive at these definitions with such precision? Do you even appreciate how large that star must have been or that you are viewing an event here as new & unique & exciting as the Big Bang itself? It takes 7hrs for light to travel from the Sun out to Pluto only but it takes *11 years* for light to travel across this expanse of this Nebula. Are we getting a little more appreciation now? There are new configurations of matter formed here & forces at play never before seen in the universe , completely brand new as well as a remnant neutron star spinning 30 rev/sec. So go stuff yourself, please don't tell me whats possible or impossible, what science knows or does not know, one can get as much from the Taliban.

Basically your argument is that a rock cannot produce life which is about a Taliban level understanding of science so there you are. Noticing also when asked why your God should be true over all other Gods you chose to redicule the Hindu faith which employs icons of devotions no less than the Catholic but left out Allah the most merciful & Islam, the fastest growing religion on the planet. All makes evolution the more real that there should be all these variations , mergings & splicings , alas , pinhead loses again. I'll take the happy elephant over dying men on the cross anyday, nor would i wish that terrifying image on impressionable children, of torture. What morons though that one up?
