Proof that scientists don’t know jack.

Sorry about two space posts in one day, but I found this amusing. I find it perplexing how people can be furiously against creationism as a viable theory in where we all came from, when it’s evident that we know next to nothing about how the universe works, let alone how it was brought into exsistance.

This article was published on physorg.com about the Hubble telescope finding “mysterious blue stars” in our closest galaxy neighbor, Andromeda. You can read the whole article if you wish, but here’s a few quotes that illustrate my point:

“Astronomers are perplexed about how the pancake-shaped disk of stars could form so close to a giant black hole. In such a hostile environment, the black hole’s tidal forces should tear matter apart, making it difficult for gas and dust to collapse and form stars.”

Apparantly this isn’t the case.

“Seeing these stars is like watching a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat. You know it happened but you don’t know how it happened,” said Tod Lauer of the National Optical Astronomy Observatory in Tucson, Arizona”

Magic, that explains it.

“…the galaxy appears to have a double cluster of stars at its centre. This finding was a surprise, because two clusters should merge into one in only a few hundred thousand years.”

Check your stopwatch.

Now if you don’t want to believe that God created the universe from nothing that’s your perrogative. But don’t ask me for “PROOF” of my theory, when this is yours.

Faith. The End.

    ‘Magic’ is much easier to accept than ‘faith’ for most. I think it is because in the end, magic is only an illusion that can be explained. Faith, on the other hand, can’t be explained. It’s based in one’s heart, not the logic of the brain. Creationism is based on faith, trust, belief in a Higher Power that isn’t an ‘illusion’ that we explain away. What’s the saying? “Seeing isn’t believing, believing is seeing.”
