Adam,
We tried this. The subject was about star formation. In desperation you
tried to use a "poster" in your room as proof.
Well, I pointed out the obvious flaw in that...you had a hissy fit and kill
filled me.
Well I have watched you since then. Sad to say all you have become is a
very unoriginal miniature Lenny F.
You use the same debunked evolutionistic arguments over and over.
You Adam do not need a debate. You Adam M, need to be saved. You need to
agree with God that you are a sinner and accept the Lord Jesus as your
Saviour.
Have you ever done that?
Ezekiel 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no
pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way
and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house
of Israel?
You've just said that you find lacking conspicuously is the lack of
real debate where each side actually responds to the arguments of the
other. Hmm, reminds me of how you keep bringing up the gen2rev check
without answering the arguments that I bring up. Hypocrisy in action.
JM
"What's conspicuously lacking here is a real debate where each side

The poster you were referring to happened to be a reproduction of a Hubble

from evaporating gas clouds.

I will not argue with someone who denies the existence of processes that
can be directly observed. To do so would be, as Thomas Paine said, to give
medicine to the dead.

anyone who wants a *real* debate?

Pay gen2rev the money you owe him, and then we can talk. In case you've
forgotten, you proposed the bet, defined the terms, set the amount, and
then lost fair and square. The latest chapter in this story appears to be
that you sent him a deliberately and obviously altered check (which people
can view here: http://crosswinds.net/~gen2rev/check.html), which cannot
legally be cashed. Until you can meet your own obligations, I have no
interest in responding to you. The "hypocrisy" you refer to can be seen
plainly in *your* actions, and I sincerely hope your fellow creationists
will disavow you for your dishonest behavior.
Really? After your performance in the "Calling all creationists"
thread I'm willing to bet this story is a little different than you
make it out to be. Let's check shall we? Here's the post where Mr
Marczyk kill-filed you:
Hmmmm, so he didn't kill file you because of the poster thing, he kill
filed you because in the previous threads you ignored just about
everything he said and continued making unsupported blind assertions!
Also, I might qualify to the 3rd party viewers that the "poster" in
question is actually a Hubble Space Telescope *photopraph* of the
Eagle Nebula, a well known stellar birthplace. So it's more than a
little disingenious to say that he "tried to use a poster" as proof of
an argument. The thrust was that new born stars are being *observed*
in the process of formation, the poster being a record of that
observation (as could the Hubble Space Telescope website, or the many
journals that the telescope's images have appeared in). Of course, you
ignored those details, focussing on the poster and completely missing
the point.
So we see that the incident isn't as claimed. Mr Marczyk just got fed
up with your general ignorance and gave up. I must ask why, once
again, you have paraphrased an occurrence in such a way that it
becomes a dishonest lie?
> Well I have watched you since then. Sad to say all you have become is a

You don't use anything but blind assertions. I've never seen you try
and back up your claims.

Tell me Mr JISTASKKIN, are *you* saved? If so, why do you lie? Why,
when you make a gross error of judgement, do you not at least retract
it and apologise? The pride in your heart turns you from the Lord. You
do not seek to glorify His name on these groups, only yourself.
In fact, you do far more *damage* to Christianity than atheists like
Mr Marczyk can. When people see your insulting, degrading and
pride-filled responses in these groups and contrast them with the
reasoned responses of others, their faith is called into question. How
is it that a man who calls himself "Christian" can behave in such a
way?

That passage equally applies to you Mr JISTASKKIN.

And just to *demonstrate* that, here's the Hubble image.
http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/1995/44/

Do you think maybe he'll discuss the images now?
I have done almost nothing else but reading through websites on the
creationism vs science debate. All of them showed one thing clearly:
From the creationist camp comes nothing but lies, intentional ignorance
and blind obedience to whatever the creationist Führers tell their
quoting drones.
If you should be able to present any _valid_ evidence whatsoever in
favor of creationism, go ahead and send it to me. But don't use the
same trash that can be found on any creationist website and has been
debunked a zillion times. You creationists need to learn that a lie
does not become true (or at least marginally believable) no matter how
long you keep repeating it.
I learned this around age 6. How old are you really?
> You Adam do not need a debate. You Adam M, need to be saved.
YOU need to be saved fundie boy. Saved from the lies and deception of
your cult Führer. Come on, show some courage and CONSIDER what we all
tell you. If you're right you have nothing to lose. On the other hand,
if you are wrong, wouldn't you want to know?
> Have you ever done that?
As for me, I was a christian most of my life... until I read the whole
bible. That was the death blow for any possible literal interpretation
of the bible. Now to return your question: Have you ever done that (i.
e. read the whole book)? If so, why do you still believe in what can be
used as a source of inspiration, but in NO way as a literal guide to
life and the Divine? Why do you worship the bible as an idol?
> Ezekiel 33:11
Quoting, quoting, endlessly quoting. The desperate measure of those who
have turned off their brains in blind obedience to their always-lying
cult Führers.
TOP TEN SIGNS YOU'RE A (CHRISTIAN) FUNDAMENTALIST
10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of
gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when
someone denies the existence of yours.
9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists
say that people evolved from other life forms, but you
have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were
created from dirt.
8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem
believing in a Triune God.
7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the
"atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even
flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all
the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the
elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" --
including women, children, and trees!
6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and
Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have
no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated
Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed,
came back to life and then ascended into the sky.
5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little
loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth
(4.55 billion years), but you find nothing wrong with
believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting
in their tents and guessing that Earth is a couple of
generations old.
4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet
with the exception of those who share your beliefs --
though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend
Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet
consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."
3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and
physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot
rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be
all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.
2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it
comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be
evidence that prayer works. And you think that the
remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.
1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and
agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church
history - but still call yourself a Christian.
Thank you for backing me up on this. Notwithstanding the total rejection of
reason and evidence that "JISTASKKIN" displayed on that occasion, and
notwithstanding the rudeness and lack of civility he has displayed on
numerous occasions, I am still willing to debate him or any creationist on
a topic of his choosing. (John McCoy is not excluded from this offer.
However, he is under another outstanding obligation which he must first
satisfy before any debate between me and him can begin.) Readers will note
that JIST did not actually accept my challenge - instead he replied with
the exact same type of ad hominem attacks and condescending sermonizing
that I pointed out in my original post has become a creationist modus
operandi on this group.

I agree wholeheartedly. While I am an atheist, I am not against
Christianity per se, or against any religion. As far as I am concerned,
people have a right to believe whatever they want, and as long as they are
willing to live and let live and do not attempt to push their beliefs on or
harm others, I have no quarrel with them. However, I must speak out when I
see fundamentalist believers blatantly distorting the truth by attacking
science and lobbying to have their sectarian beliefs taught in public
schools. And I agree that JIST and those like him are doing *far* more
damage to Christianity by their actions than an atheist such as myself
could ever accomplish. I can easily post numerous testimonies from people
who were so "turned off" by the intolerance, ignorance and rudeness of
fundamentalists - creationists in particular -that they made the decision
to abandon Christianity, or at least fundamentalist Christianity, entirely.
Here's one such:

And another:
http://home.entouch.net/dmd/gstory.htm
And a third:
http://talkorigins.org/origins/postmonth/jul03.html#run
By inviting the creationists to a debate, I am giving them the chance to
redeem themselves, if only they would see it. But judging by the current
lack of response, I am sad to say it seems as if they would rather forge
blindly on, congratulating themselves on how many souls they think they are
winning by spamming newsgroups with cut-and-paste sermons and then
responding to the replies only with insults, if at all. This is a tragedy
for all concerned.

You keep saying the same thing, that I should send gen2rev a check
that he can actually cash. A few days ago, when gen2rev posted a
copy of my check, I immediately e-mailed him giving him several
options. That he could either send the check back for a replacement,
or that he could risk cashing the check and if it didn't work out I
would make it good, or that I could send him a letter of authenticity.
I have yet to hear from gen2rev on this matter so I can't send him a
check or do anything for that matter. You're being unfair in trying
to force an issue that isn't even an issue. It seems that you're just
trying to make me look bad so as to bring my creationist viewpoint
down with my character. But it's up to gen2rev, you see, and not just
what you want me to do.
JM
But even as you change the subject, you're still a hypocrite. There's
still time for you to change.
"What's conspicuously lacking here is a real debate where each side

-Adam Marczyk
This is what you need to do:
1) Go down to your bank and put a stop on the dodgy cheque you wrote.
2) Send another cheque.
See how easy that was?! Step 1 will safeguard you if you're paranoid
about gen2rev somehow managing to cash your first cheque (although any
bank would have to be criminally negligent to accept it). I think it's
pretty obvious that he wouldn't attempt to do that. All this talk
about returning cheques and letters of authorisation is unnecessary. A
bank would probably not accept a letter of authorisation unless there
was a way to confirm the identity of the sender (anyone can forge a
signature).

watermarks not enough evidence of a flood ? Does'nt a San depiction of a

( I've heard all the arguments in the past four years - too hot, erosion ,
carvings ect.) These impressions and engravings are for real, no fake.
The SAN people made their
engravings (turned yellowish through the years) next to these impressions.

Tom: Jistanass is so stupid that he doesn't have a clue as to how stupid
comments like this make him appear. I guess you could say that he is
clueless. If he had swampland he could definitely sell it to you. Jistanass
won't believe stars form in this region unless a telescope is trained
directly on a dark area of the sky when an actual star is born. It is
amazing that Jistanass can't understand star formation yet he believes in
the literal truth of mythological stories in the Hebrew bible that were
borrowed from earlier mythology. Tell me Jistanass, if stars aren't born how
do you explain an H-R diagram? Here are a couple of sites that you need to
visit. After that I need you to tell me why all of the information presented
on these two sites is wrong and why it is wrong. You can do that, can't you

Hey Tommy. Have you figured out how a kill-file works yet?
Ask real nice and I will explain it to you.
But it is common knowledge that real operational science tells us that the
pressure build up would not allow gravity to form a star....
Ahhh forget it. You are bent on closing your eyes and "imagining" it all
happened in magical evolution land.
Any time you want to discuss real science Mr. sappy, let me know.
Hey Sappo, anytime you would like to present the operational science that
shows how gas can coalesce into a solid object, let me know.
Of course you would have to come out of your imaginary world of evolutionary
"it happened a looooong time ago and faaaaaar away to do so.
Tom: I noticed that you clipped my post without notation. What's the
matter Jistanass, couldn't respond to my replies? Didn't think so. I have
already replied to the killfile in another post, Mr. "Christian".
Looks like your "god" didn't give you the nod to go to see jpl/nasa.
Try "freezing", though the concept may be too hard for you to grasp.
consider having been presented (though it hasn't much to do with
star formation, gravity does, however).

Pressure build-up won't allow star formation. Please tell me how this real

familiar with Jean's Mass? Didn't think so but I thought a powerhouse person

The discussion is star formation. And Sappo, you would need to explain that
before you tried to explain biological life.

The uncertainty is the rate of accretion, not whether accretion occurs or
not. The point is that knowing these dust clouds accrete leads "to other

Quoting from the NATURE article, "Here we show that the recent discovery of
the most iron-poor star known indicates the presence of dust in extremely
low-metallicity gas, and that this dust is crucial for the formation of
lower-mass second-generation stars that could survive until today. The dust
provides a pathway for cooling the gas that leads to fragmentation of the
precursor molecular cloud into smaller clumps, which become the lower-mass
stars."
They "show". Like all science, even though the article was subjected to
peer-review, the results are always provisional. Do you have specific
evidence to shed insight on the properties of low-metallicity gases? Perhaps
a cite from someone who actually makes astronomical observations.

Well, it started with Galileo. He built a telescope and pointed it at the
sky. He saw mountains on the moon, the phases of Venus, and moons orbiting
Jupiter. He realized that what religious philosophers were teaching about
the cosmos was wrong. There is no literal "Heaven above" or angels moving
planets on crystal spheres. He was percecuted for pointing this out.
Since, then we have built a few more telescopes of varying sizes and
characteristics, including the Hubble Space Telescope.

*Light* captured by telescopes clearly shows that stars are made of the same
kind of matter as our own Sun and Earth. Not that scientific cites mean
anything to you, but for others who may be interested:
Dept. of Astronomy, University of Illinois
"We know what the stars are made of, know of their structures and their
lives, only because we are able to observe and analyze their spectra.
Unbroken starlight allows us to admire a star's external characteristics;
its spectrum allows us to look into its very soul."

Evolutionists generally believe that stars formed by the collapse of gas
clouds under gravity. This is supposed to generate the millions of degrees
required for nuclear fusion.
But most clouds would be so hot that outward pressure would prevent
collapse. Evolutionists must find a way for the cloud to cool down. One such
mechanism might be through molecules in the cloud colliding and radiating
enough of the heat away.
But according to theory, the 'big bang' made mainly hydrogen, with a little
helium - the other elements supposedly formed inside stars. Helium can't
form molecules at all, so the only molecule that could be formed would be
molecular hydrogen (H2). Even this is easily destroyed by ultraviolet light,
and usually needs dust grains to form - and dust grains require heavier
elements. So the only coolant left is atomic hydrogen, and this would leave
gas clouds over a hundred times too hot to collapse.
Abraham Loeb of Harvard's Center for Astrophysics says: 'The truth is that
we don't understand star formation at a fundamental level.'1

Meanwhile, you never provided cites to support this JISTASKKINian assertion,
"that real operational science tells us that the pressure build up would not
allow gravity to form a star."
The mass required to ignite a stellar reaction is called Jean's Mass.
MJ = [3/4 pi density]1/2 [15kT/G mH]3/2 ~ [density)]1/2

This is a mischaracterization of my comments. As can be seen above you
challenged me to point to "where in the real waking world has science shown
that turbulence and pressure form a solid object."
Snowflakes are one such solid object formed from a turbulent gas and
differential pressure. Another would be frost on the windowpane. Of course,
it is also present in thousands of industrial processes.

Already off to a bad start. Assuming by evolutionists they mean evolutionary
biologists, evolutionary biology has nothing to do with star formation. They
must have typed it wrong and meant "astronomers" or "astrophysicists". By
the way, does anything here have to do with the specific subject of the
properties of low-metallicity gases? Let's read on and find out.

This depends on the mass of the object. Certainly for smaller objects, such
as Earth, the outward pressure prevents collapse. However, for objects
greater than the Jean's Mass, the object will continue to collapes until the
heat is such that hydrogen will fuse into helium.

mass called the 'Jean's Mass.'"

They forgot to include the math. Anyway, this has nothing to do with stellar

I can think of one obvious explanation: they're carvings. Since igneous
rock is rock that has solidified from a molten state, there would be
obvious difficulties in leaving footprints on it. How many barefoot strolls
across lava have you taken lately?

Right here, as a matter of fact:

These researchers turned oxygen into a solid metal (briefly) by putting it
under enormous pressure between two sapphire anvils and then subjecting it
to a shock wave. As far as I know we don't yet have machines that can exert
enough pressure to turn hydrogen into a solid metal - although we have
turned it into a metallic liquid.

Stars are not solid objects. I am amazed that you don't know this. Stars
are fluid all the way through; we know this because we have directly
observed "sunquakes", vibrational patterns in the surface of our own Sun
analogous to earthquakes. On the Earth, there are two different types of
vibrations produced by an earthquake: P-waves, which are compressional
patterns similar to sound waves, and S-waves, which vibrate perpendicular
to the direction of motion (similar to the way an electromagnetic wave
vibrates). P-waves can travel through any medium; S-waves can only travel
through solids. We observe P-waves in the Sun, but no S-waves at all.
Therefore, we conclude that the Sun is not solid.
Do you *really* intend to argue against well-established theories of star
formation when you are ignorant of even the most basic facts of astronomy?
That would be like arguing against creationism without ever having read any
part of the Bible. If you would dismiss a person who tried to do that as
uneducated, then you should have the decency to actually learn some things
about this subject before staking out a position on it.
Tom: Notice folks, not one response to the post. This is because Jistanass

Would you like to actually discuss the data?

It is a star forming region. However, it is not 'forming a completely
new one,' as you say, but rather, it is forming *lot's* of new ones.
Now, asking why we think so is a very reasonable question. But it can't
be explained why in merely a sentence or two.
Do you understand the spectrum of light and what the consequences of its
analysis are? By studying the spectrum of light from stars and nebula
we can determine their composition; what elements they are composed of.
For example, did you know that helium was discovered in the Sun before
it was discovered on Earth by the analysis of the Sun's spectrum? That
is why it is called helium, from helios.
By taking the spectra of thousands upon thousands of stars in our
immediate region of the galaxy, astronomers have been able to piece
together the life cycle of stars. What young stars look like and what
old stars look like.
Part of the evidence supporting this is the analysis of the spectra of
the nebula various stars are associated with. For example, look at the
following nebulae, they are very, very different from the Eagle nebula
that has been the topic of this discussion thus far:
http://ad.usno.navy.mil/pne/caption.html
These are referred to as 'planetary nebula' (PN). They got their name
because, to early telescopic observers, they looked like a disk of a
planet only nebulous. And if you've ever seen Uranus or Neptune through
a small telescope along with various PNs you'd know what I mean.
Anyway, notice how different these nebulas are in comparison to the
Eagle nebula. Their structure is completely different. Spectra reveal
that their composition is also very different. PN are concentrated with
heavier elements where as nebula like the Eagle nebula are not. PN are
always found to be expanding outward from a central point which always
contains a very different kind of star known as a white dwarf.
Spectra reveal white dwarfs to be very compact, dense stars with very,
very high surface temperatures. Completely unlike other stars, such as
the Sun or other stars you see in the sky with your naked eyes.
Now let's contrast these planetary nebula with nebula like the Eagle
nebula. There are other nebulae that are similar to the Eagle nebula,
such as the Orion Nebula or the Trifid Nebula. The globules found in
these nebulas are nothing like anything found in the PNs. Unlike PNs,
these nebula are always associated with a large cluster of stars. And,
these stars have been shown to all be moving through space together.
Their sizes are very different too. The Eagle nebula is several
thousand light years across where as PN are typically about 1 light year
in diameter.
So anyway, there's some basics describing two different kinds of nebulae
with very different characteristics. Obviously, different processes are
taking place in these different kind of nebula.
What do you suppose is going on in these nebulae?
You're correct, of course. I should have mentioned that this demand on
JIST's part is irrelevant since we know stars are not solids (as I pointed
out to him in another post), though he seems to erroneously think
otherwise.

Ooops, I guess I was wrong. As usual, Jist couldn't back up his stupid

christianity, mixed with a lack of knowledge of science. That would be
JISTASKKIN, the man (boy?) who has never backed up an assertion, IIRC.

Relative to a gas cloud many light years in diameter they are.

Jist,
Where can one find that "common knowledge"? What is/are the
principle(s) involved that would increase pressure (in the
collapsing cloud, apparently) to the point where it would stop
further gravitational collapse? Where could one find an
accessible on-line or print treatment of this/these principle(s)?

So, let's see: now that you admit that the Sun is not a solid body, what
precisely is left for you to object to? Do you take issue with the idea
that gravity can compress a gas cloud into a denser gas cloud?

Based on the available evidence, the best hypothesis is that our moon was
created early in the history of the solar system, when a large (i.e., about
the size of Mars) body crashed into the Earth. The collision remelted the
Earth and spewed a jet of molten debris into space. Some of this debris
entered Earth orbit, coalesced and cooled, and eventually became our moon.

You're welcome.
Your ability to miss the point is nothing short of amazing. Admit that your
original challenge ("Where in the real waking world has science shown that
turbulence and pressure form a solid object?") has been satisfactorily
answered, and then we can move on to the topic of star formation.

Jist,
What solid object are you speaking of? Planets? If so, then
why should this be a problem? Your assumption that the
protostellar cloud would be entirely gas is not supported by
the evidence of astronomy; there is also dust and bits of
solid matter.

No, of course not. If you can't emulate Jist and express
viscious personal attack without using Anglo-Saxon jargon,
then you get to have Jist fail to respond to your valid questions.
And, of course, Jist will be able to make some cork-screw
pseudo-logic to explain why biological evolution and stellar
evolution are identical. It won't make sense, of course; but
he'll defend it until he gets tired and goes away again.
Tom: See my answer to Raymond for the truth. You only make yourself look
like a fool. Gosh, did I say that? Of course you look like a fool, you are a
fool!!
>Jistanass: Sorry, let me rephrase. Any evolutionist who is not a buffoon.
Tom: I just told you how stars form and where they must form. Read that if
you can and then scientifically tell me why this isn't true. If you can't do
that, just admit that you are full of shit!
Tom: But the gravity did overcome the pressure. All areas of space are not
suited for star formation. All people who have even a modicum of scientific
knowledge are aware of this. Stars form in regions where the interstellar
material is relatively dense, so that atoms and dustgrains are close
together and gravitational attraction is increased.
Also to help in star formation the pressure of the material should be
relatively low. This means that the medium should be as cold as possible,
because the pressure of a gas goes down as the gas temperature of the gas
decreases.
This means that the only parts of the interstellar medium with high enough
density and low enough temperature for stars to form are the dark nebulae.
Guess where we see stars forming, Jistanass, in the nebulaes. That is one
reason that getting an actual picture of star formation is extremely
difficult.
Tell me Jistanass, who is teaching you science??? You need to go to a better
school.

Tom: LOL. Talk about shifting the goal posts :-). You are so transparent
Jistanass and so ignorant. Let's just stick with the stars until we get an
"uncle" from you. Then we will go to the moon.

Tom: What a disgrace. As I said we'll stick to star formation and after you
admit that you don't have a frigging clue as to why stars can't form, then
we'll go to your simple question.
Tom: You are still claiming to be a Christian?? Read my answer to Raymond,
I've called your bluff Jistanass.
Tom: Gosh, what a terrible reading problem. I've given you your answer
Jistanass, you tell us why stars can't form now.
Tom: No, the question is do you get it? As I told you, which you ignore,
stars form only in nebulas for a reason, don't they, Jistanass?
>Jistanass: Dream on star boy.
Tom: Keep denying science "god boy". Speking of that, how do you think "god"
made the stars, Jistanass?
And how many astronomers agree with that particular explanation?
Very good. Gotta problem with that?

If you choose not to look at it honestly, why bother?
I am trying to figure out what you are saying here. Please, your paranoia is
frightening me.
Are you saying that snowflakes and stars are similar in design?
Were you not even capable of following Raymond's simpleton brain-dead easy
to follow (thanks again Raymond) instructions?
Unbelievable. Your stupidity is beyond belief.
