You actually believe that something microscopic exploted and created matter in an instanced and this matter that was created evolved into one single chemical, as in a hydrogen atom, then somehow this hydrogen atom produced all the chemicals from the table of element including Gold, Silver, Oxygen, carbon, plutonium, and uranium via chemical evolution?
for the most part, yes. I know you'll probably just laugh out of ignorance at my response. So I figured I would beat you to the punch and counter your future reply with a detailed essay defending my belief.
The prevailing theory is that quantum fluctuations in the vacuum of space were pulled far apart during the Big Bang. Normally these fluctuations result in pairs of virtual particles that come into existence briefly and then annihilate each other. However, the rapid expansion of the universe during the Big Bang separated these particle pairs before they had time to couple thus making them 'real.' The particles created by quantum fluctuations have the ability to become either matter or energy.

Colliding photons formed particle-pairs, and matter/anti-matter annihilation created photons. The very instant these photons were created, they immediately converted into matter and vice versa. It wasn't until 10
-12 sec. after the Big Bang that quarks and electrons were able to exist separate from photons.
http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Cyberia/Cosmos/InTheBeginning.htmlhttp://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~pogge/Ast162/Unit5/early.htmlAs space expanded, it began to cool down. The universe entered the nucleosynthesis epoch during which the first hydrogen atoms began to form. However, the distribution of hydrogen gas in the universe was not homogenous. Over time, regions of higher density collapsed and coalesced due to gravitational forces. These clouds of collapsing interstellar hydrogen were so massive that the gravitational forces at the center caused the atoms to ignite in a process called fusion. Thus the first stars in our universe were born.
http://www.abc.net.au/science/news/stories/s249630.htmhttp://cfa-www.harvard.edu/COMPLETE/learn/star_and_planet_formation.htmlThe process of fusion produces many new elements. Stars fuse hydrogen to helium, and helium to heavier atoms. Heavier elements are formed in denser areas of the star. These elements were blasted out into space when the earliest stars went supernova. There is evidence that heavy-element formation occurs in stars.
"observations in red giants of one kind of nucleus – 99technetium – provides direct evidence that heavy-element formation really does occur in stars today."
Wright Center for Science Education
http://www.tufts.edu/as/wright_center/cosmic_evolution/docs/text/text_stel_6.htmlThe newly formed elements that were casted into space existed in the form of rocks and gas clouds, which coalesced to form planets, moons, and other celestial bodies. It was only a matter of time before the elements released from stars gathered on one of the planets that is hospitable for life, such as Earth, and combined to form molecules that combined to form amino acids, which evolved into very simple cells, and thus life began.
cliffs:
the Big Bang caused the rapid expansion of our universe, which led to the heterogeneous distribution of hydrogen clouds that birthed stars and ultimately led to everything you see around you.
If this is provable then so is Santa Clause. How many billions was it again, how about the evolution of the planet and the stars and all the steller compounds found in space, and of course some non living matter turned in an organic life form obviously without anytype of observations or traces of this taken place, chemical broth turning into single celled omeoba and microscopic bacteria, I'm sorry did you observe this? NO, so how do you know this took place, it clearly doesn't happen today. Slow process huh? Macro evolution?, I know of scientest that preech with the utmost intensity the theory of evolution and they themselves will still admit this has never been observed, so ....................
The process you refer to by which life originated from non-living material is called abiogenesis. There are several theories that attempt to explain this process. Whether these theories are correct or not is irrelevant. The fact remains abiogenesis did occur. We had to come from somewhere. As for evolution, I already provided plenty of evidence supporting the theory.
WHAT PROOF ARE YOU REFERRING TOO SMART GUY, BECAUSE I ALSO HAVE POOF OF THE JFK ASSINATION.
