question for the y.e.c

I notice that nobody has actually answered the OP question. Is it really that difficult?

Apparently you skipped over the post immediately after the OP. I answered the OP question with the simple reply - NO.

Hey! Leave the poor duffus alone! If he don't know nothing then what can you do? Some people you just can't explain nothing to... they never get it. 😕😛

OK .. let's pretend I don't know what "nothing" is .... you define it.

Do you always deflect questions directed to you on to others?

My apologies. I normally skip over most of your posts so I did miss that one.

what is your explanation for our observations of stars and galaxies being slowly formed? are we mistaken, if so what are we really observing?

do you accept that stars die.

Stars and galaxies were formed before man was created, so nobody has ever observed their formation. All observations are of stars and galaxies as they appear today.

The second law of thermodynamics would indicate that stars will also die out in time due to loss of energy.

No.
You are the acknowledged master at that. As your post indicates.

so what are we observing when we look at nebulas? can you explain the process that is taking place?

We see what we see, nothing more. The process is called magnification. Look it up.

Well what do you know? I found it. I've been making the mistake of putting whole addresses into the google search, but all I needed from that one were the words "something from nothing is a quantum possibility".

I thought you were directing me to a real science article. The first two paragraphs were basically the same kind of finger wagging moralizing nonsense I can get listening to you, and the science portion of it was even less informative than I thought it would be. Maybe next time you can direct me to a real science article, if that wouldn't be too much to ask.

"We see what we see, nothing more. The process is called magnification. Look it up."

the process of a nebula is magnification????? we use magnification to look at a nebula. i want to know what you think is happening in a nebula?


what are we seeing when we look at a nebula? what is a nebula rj?

Now that you have mastered GOOGLE you can find it yourself!

I can find almost anything I'm looking for online, have been able to do that since the mid 90's. It was putting specific addresses into the google search that tripped me up. By the way, you've been a big help with this teacher wolfie, so thanks for nothing. lol

Oh, right... I almost forgot about nothing! You wanted to pretend you don't know nothing and then have me explain it to you, is that right? Very well, I'll pretend you do know how to define it and start by saying nothing (a state of nothingness) is self explanatory. Okay, now it's your turn. 😵

when given a url try putting it into your browser rather than googling 🙄
