There was no Pangea...the Earth is growing.

Well, I honestly can see the arguement. It IS hypothetically possible for the earth to grow in volume (not mass) in this manner. Most all materials expand as they cool. If the earth was a very dense place 65 billion years ago, then I could see this happening. Over the next 65 million years, the earth expands, and in doing so creates more surface area to cool, which is this whole accelerating expansion thing they're talking about. As far as the questions about where the water came from... who said it wasn't there the whole time? Someone said miles deep... yeah. Remember, large portions of habitable land have previously been under water as sediment records show.

I don't buy it, not on the time scale they're talking about. 65 million years, no. 600 million years, no. 3.5 billion years... it's possible. After all, Copernicus proved established theory wrong...

Yeah there is no way in hell that that much mass can be created in 65 million years

That's what you thought about your wife's ass too.

there is no need for a huge discussion.

the answer is so simple even Neal Adams can get it.

The continents move because Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked the earth 3 billion years ago and we are still dealing with it today.

this is how everyone responded to Galileo hundreds of years ago when he suggested a heliocentric solar system....

now everyone just says, "duh." And laughs at those people with whom he shares guilt.

Galileo presented a theory and a rationale for his theory. It would take Tycho Brahm and Kepler to put it on solid footing. Adam Neal doesn't present a mechanism, just a pretty animation and a loud voice.

Science is cool . But I would like to vary much for science to explain or explain away the missing link. The amount of hair on a human body is a little bit hard to comprehind in the evolution of things. Ice ages and all .

Ya I love science it has done great things for the over all benefit of man. I mean rather than that bigger meaner captain cavey raiding my cave and dragging off my mate, I thought about using a weapon like a clib to make things fair. Than look at construction rather than building very simple pyramid tpye structure that stand the test of time , We build sky scrapers that airplains can bring down .

I sleep so much better now than I would have 200 years ago were an indian could break into my cabin built from wood . and remove my scalp. No need to worry about nukes or poisen gases or germ warfare. Because man in his evolution would never stoop to use things the scientific community has provided us . I mean no leader would ever think of using nukes on cities now would they . I owe so much to science . Ya my life is so much better because of science . I sleep like a baby.

I don't undestand how people of old ever survived. Ya I owe so much to science I stay awake at not trying to think of ways to thank them for my enlightenment .

According to science man has been around millions of years. I wonder what the earths total population was 4,000 years ago . Must be around the same today . I mean its only been 4'000 years . And mans been around for millions of years that 4, ooo years is a drop in the bucket. Thank you so much science for giving me a sense of security for myself and my offspring in coming generations . Science has done so much for me that I for one would like to pay science back in repayment for all its done for me.

Once we invent the time machine you can go back to the iron age where your religion came from.

Actually it goes back way further than Galileo . Hell they had electric lights and batteries over 2,000 years ago . The HRCC was resposiable partly for the flat earth thing at least they keep that line of reasoning alive.

And that was in the days when people followed their intuition. They never thought of doing experiments and looking at evidence. Since Aristotle or before, common sense said that heavy objects fall faster than lighter objects. 2000 years before someone dropped two at the same time and said, "holy shit! They fall at the same rate!" In the past 3 centuries (give or take), science has really become what it is.

I want you to type, one hundred times:

I don't really know... All I can tell is he hates the Catholic Church, has some weird bible ideas, and posts while drunk or high.

You just want to get back there to see if anyone has posted kinky doctor pics yet.

Hey, I haven't even clicked on that thread yet! Too busy workin', I got bills to pay with Obama's money!




edit: no, seriously, I clicked on this thread because I'm interested in continental drift theory but then :Q

Unlikely. I haven't watched the OP's video, but the earth is still accreting. By many tons per day. I think this was mentioned earlier in the thread.

I don't see why everyone is so upset about this? I mean, a couple hundred years ago the though that the continents fit together was grounds for death. Why is it so absured that we could learn more and eventually discover that this guy was at least partially right?

People are afraid of change I dont get it either... Thinking the earth was round and orbited around the sun used to be outrageous too... Its specially disturbing coming from people interested in science - those should have the most open of minds

I welcome any theory someone might have, while it may be far from the truth, theres always some bit that fits, and might be the key to a puzzle somewhere else

Actually, science is where it is right now because of people that came out with something no one thought before, and thats how we will keep evolving... If we just relied on the "closed mindedness" of ATOT we would still be in the stone age

Ego is heavily built into the scientific psyche especially in America. It is a part of what motivates individuals into discovering new things.
I prefer to learn and stay open minded and enjoy the wonder of whatever the truth may be.

I'm not sure what you're getting at, but large egos get trumped by data in the scientific community. Science is completely open to new ideas, but you've got to bring the data to support it.

Well ultimately yes but still. The scientific community still believes we are seeing the edge of the universe and they swear by it. Funny how every time we build a larger telescope the universe gets older. Much of the scientific community is totally closed and vehemently against the idea of a creator. Just a couple of examples. A good scientist is always open minded as even ridiculous ideas may present new questions and a new way of thinking about a problem. Yet much of science today is filled with emotional bias which is driven by ambition that staggers progress and clouds logical thinking. Egos prevail and quite often the goal is to prove how advanced ones brain is as apposed to making progress in the name of science. I grew up in the scientific community with an atheist father who studied physics and astronomy (as did I) and I have seen these attitudes repeatedly. One need not look further than a bulletin board to get a small taste.
