Genesis chapter 1

[r9etb]

"Most of the species that did survive were highly resilient, and had the ability to remain dormant through the cosmic winter that followed. When conditions improved, these species had an advantage over their competitors and were able to proliferate and diversify."

Hmmmmm. The problem with this theory seems to be that it provides no reason for why these forms weren't diversifying before the impact.

They don't really come out and say it, but it almost sounds like they're supporting Hoyle's theories about extraterrestrial origins for life on Earth.

Oh I struggle to be a true believing darwinite. Giant explosions lead to higher levels of complexity. This happens all the time in the real world. And if you don't see it, you must be a gullible 'creationist'!

I thought it was going to play a pivotal role in the elimination of life? Make up my mind.

If true, where did the asteroid come from? I am under the impression that most, if not all, asteroids come from within our own solar system.

At work now so don't have time to research this.

Well...

I guess...

If I woke up in the morning and discovered that a huge asteroid was about to really knock the china outta the cabinet, the wife and I would surely engage in some "rapid proliferation" of our own.

ASTEROID IMPACT PLAYED PIVOTAL ROLE IN BRINGING FORTH LIBERALS.

Look, no asteroid hit this earth and created life. The mothership crashed, resulting in a dust storm that killed the dyno-soars. We had to live in the ship for 2 years while the dust settled.'

I just don't understand how you all don't understand this.
