I hope that I don't spark a thảo luận here. I am not disparaging the theory of Evolution hoặc making any statement for Intelligent thiết kế here. This is intended to ask a câu hỏi with the intent of getting a serious answer to my question.

My personal các lượt xem on the origin of life and the Earth will remain hidden for now as I do not want to taint your opinion of this bài viết hoặc of me hoặc anything like that.

Evolution explains the origins of life and how species evolved and adapted. However, can it explain how the Earth came to be able to sustain life?

Allow me to explain. The percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere, the angle of axis, the distance from the sun and moon, the shape of its orbit, its composition... If any one of those things were too different from what they are, chances are the Earth may have not been able to sustain life.

Can Evolution explain that? hoặc is Evolution intended to explain the biological side of things? Does the "Big Bang" theory count? What are the chances that all of the conditions could have occured randomly?

Emm_xD Your view as expressed here is very similar to the William Paley Theory. Meaning - If Earth was created "by accident" (The Big Bang Theory) then how can things in Earth have been created so intricately? I do think Evolution intends to explain the biologicial aspect. Evolution is based on facts, like you said the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere, the angle of axis, they are all in perfect tuning to each other, so how could they have been created by accident? If they were different then chances are the Earth would not survive. Evolution cannot explain that. The only thing evolution can explain is why they are like that. I don't know whether that actually helped - I just rambled on lol!

Praesse Well, I'm sure those things can be explained, just not by the Evolution Theory. I mean, maybe studying Physic or maybe even Chemistry you can get to understand those things. Anyway, I think that considering that the universe is infinite (or at least inmensely huge) the chances of having at least one planet that can sustain life because of [i]just chance[/i] are not that little. Anyway, this is the only kind of life we [i]know[/i]. Who knows? Maybe there's some kind of life that doesn't need water out there in the infinite universe, and maybe we can't even recognize that kind of life as life, to begin with.

MAGNIFICENCE

One morning in a gần đây past I was feeling
so lonely and so empty
after the loss of my dearest friend.
Shaking and shivering and craving.

But an Angel sent me this and I thought of God.
Tears of joy rolled down my closed eyes
while I was kissing my friend’s Angel eyes
And then my eyes opened to see
everything I failed to see all my life

I felt these magnificent hình ảnh and song
emitting tangible tình yêu vibrations into
our own special atmosphere across
the secret garden we’ve built for each other
healing and honouring our hearts
as we both just wanted to be loved bởi each other.

I felt like a warm hand...

ENERGY CONSERVATION AND EFFICIENCY

posted by juicyjossy9

Using less energy isn't about making drastic lifestyle changes hoặc sacrifices. Conservation and efficiency measures can be as simple as improving the standards for new buildings so that they use less energy for heating and cooling, replacing an old refrigerator with one that doesn't waste as much power, hoặc adjusting the thermostat before leaving home.

Not only do conservation and efficiency ease electricity supply crunches bởi reducing demand, they also decrease smog and greenhouse gas emissions, lower bills for all customers and create jobs and other economic benefits. It's a win-win situation....
