I believe there was a big bang, but the idea of anything coming from nothing is just absurd.

the theory is that energy could become matter in situations obviously not natural to anything observable here for us to test.

there isnt a final explanation or anything, but thats the glory of science. even when you have the answers eventually, you are never done evaluating it and changing the published work.

lightning strikes arent proof of god anymore, so they cant use that.
Zeus and Thor aren't hurling lightning bolts at people anymore?
Where will my faith go now???

im atheist but i dont believe in evolution. i believe its possible and probably did happen to plants and animals. but people? aliens put us here :D

Aliens?

...

Alright.

Aliens?

...

Alright.
You don't think there could be other sentient beings out there? Bit self centered imo

well i dont believe in god. and aliens are becoming more and more accepted as real nowadays.

however if aliens are real, then evolution cant be the solution to where people came from, as that wouldnt explain them existing as similar beings to ourselves. the coincidence would be greater then a god existing lol.
therefore, they put us here :D

What do you mean, evolution wouldn't explain it if aliens shares some similar traits to us? Isn't that all covered by convergent evolution?

I've watched/read many pro-religion videos/articles and I have never heard/seen any good, and the only arguments that could be called good, or even ok, are arguments addressing the holes in the theories that science already admits are there and is attempting to figure out
so you haven't seen any arguments that you consider good. That doesn't mean there are none. I think I've heard plenty of good arguments, because I look for them. I look for things on both sides of the argument, so often only one side gets anything out.
Either of which?
Also most of religion's hypothesis are untestable as well, and of the ones that are testable, I can't think of one that hasn't been proven false.
I don't think anybody considers religions Hypothesis's. Nor do I think anything that I believe has been proven false. If it were, I wouldn't believe it.
is because people teach them to scientifically uneducated people, such as children before they are taught science, and then it targets their fears in ways that make them unwilling to stop believing. And then the pass them down to their children and it continues.
At least the religions that I think of when I hear the word 'religion'
Children's book- Danny the Dinosaur!
First words in the book, "millions of years ago," the kids have no reason not to believe it so they swallow the stuff down. Evolution is taught in a lot of science classes as a fact, so is the Big Bang. Often those two "theories" lead people to become atheists. It seems to me like we aren't the only one's influencing children at a young age.
and a way to make people behave, out of fear of eternal torture
That is by no means the only reason people follow a religion. I follow my religion because I think it's true, not because I'm scared of hell.
You said that if you were an atheist you would believe in the big bang and evolution, but those are silly ideas and that's why you're not an atheist.
You can be an atheist without believing in either of those things you loving nimrod.
I did not say all atheists believe either or both of those things. I said that if I were, I would believe those things. Please just drop it. I never meant to be offense, and even so, I apologized.

I don't, but it's not because I'm self centered. It's just because the odds (even if the Big Bang did happen) that another planet ended up with just the right conditions for life are so slim.

well either they left here or we got here after them evolving first from somewher else.

im saying the possibility of bipedal sentient beings evolving from scratch just as we had is not happening.

What actually happened is that aliens used to live on Earth. Just as we were learning to make cave painting, they were ready to take a voyage into outer space. For a while we drew about them in caves and treated them as gods. By the time we advance to the age of interstellar travel, the monkeys will be drawing about us in caves. And the cycle goes on...

the odds (even if the Big Bang did happen) that another planet ended up with just the right conditions for life are so slim.

from mere earth we have already found over 20 planets that are like our own, possible to be livable.

and are currently examining another 20 or so.

you need to get out of the religion box more. science is 2 steps ahead of you

Are they? have you calculated the probability? Other people have, and the probability is more in favor that they do exist. (drake equation i think it's called)

Look up convergent evolution, because that's pretty much the idea. Two separate things can evolve and share characteristics if each species shares a similar environment.

I'm not saying they would definitely be bipedal, but i wouldn't rule it out as an impossibility

Bisjac are you from the church of Scientology since you believe in aliens and and stuff?

I'm curious if it's better to be a quadruped or a Bipedal creature.

You're right, other people have calculated the odds. One website I saw say it was 1/googlplex. Another said 1/googl, another said 1/some other huge number I don't remember.
Just looked at drake equation, I see a flaw already. It includes number of star formation- which we've never seen a star form. The only thing we've seen is a light popping up in a place we didn't notice it before. There is no evidence that that is a star formation.
It includes planets that can potentially support life, not planets that can support life.
And all the rest are 1, us.
As for convergent evolution, it could just as easily be a common designer, rather then a common ancestor.
