Re: Bill O'Reilly, scientist

Yes, I agree. This video should be viewed by every science student in America, then they can realise how more stupid Bill O' Reilly is, and hopefully we can make this YouTube video get even more dislikes than it has now. We have a very full understanding of why the tides goes in and the tides go out, why live is here, and science is pilling on the evidence and understanding of the universe. We do have a good understanding of how the moon and our planets got here looking at the observations we have taken from other solar systems. We don't see a man in white clothing creating the planets. It doesn't mean if you don't understand it, and us scientist don't understand it, does that mean God did it? Are you trying to postulate that when no one really understands it? In the past, there was a list of things which us scientist, at the time, didn't understand, thus you put the evidence on a supernatural things (God). Then, 100 years later we understand it making God a fading figure. Also want to correct what Bill said, Mars does have a moon, it has two in fact. I think you need to learn more science before moaning about what we do or do not understand.

Wow, such hostility and anger, friend. I'm sensing someone really hurt you in the past. You know, Jesus can heal your wounds, He can take your burdens. He can make you whole. Won't you consider going to Him?

If Mars has moons, why doesn't it have tides? Now we're back a video, where Bill O'Reilly explains God exists because where else could the tides come from. You scientists claim that it's the moon that caused the tides, but you can't answer how the moon got there. You can't answer why Mars doesn't have tides even though now you say Mars has two moons, which proves your previous argument of earth's tides being caused by the moon wrong.

You really need to learn some science, once you accept that if your answer to one question is invalidated by your answer to another question you have proven yourself wrong. The only thing that you cannot prove wrong is the Bible, because the Bible was written by God Himself, who has firsthand knowledge of His creation.

Seriously? You sure you haven't inhaled some paint fumes or something?

Yes, we know the Moon--and the Sun, but less so--causes the tides. Humanity has understood that for centuries. The tides happen exactly as you'd expect from our models of gravity: they go up on the side of the planet facing either body, and down when it's on the far side.

Mars does not have water! Therefore it dose not have tides, by your own rules, if you are wrong in the 1st you are in the 2nd. Like i said, yes, we have a pretty good idea how the Moon got there. The very early Earth was hit by a Mars-size planet which melted the crust and blew off large parts of the planet, much of which went into orbit and eventually condensed to form the Moon. This is why the Moon is poor in heavy elements but the composition of its rocks is otherwise so similar to Earth's. Mars does have tides from its moons, but they're negligible since its moons are so tiny--and the tides would be less visible anyway since there's no liquid water on the surface to make them obvious. If you find a complex idea like moons and tides difficult, then a more complex theory of what might have created them is likely to be difficult to comprehend.

Please, according to you dogma, anything that contradicts the ancient book written SHOULD be wrong. There are no demons, unicorns, or a flat earth... The bible wasn't intended to be a "holy book", it was the interpretation of the ancient people of the world they lived. Please, read a science book and for the sake of Christ. Can you PROVE that "the Bible was written be God Himself" without saying it's in the bible? If the universe needs a creator why doesn't God? if God doesn't need a creator why does the universe? man created the bible, we are made from stars open your eyes bada bing bada boom

Wrong.

Schematic of the lunar portion of earth's tides showing (exaggerated) high tides at the sublunar and antipodal points for the hypothetical case of an ocean of constant depth with no land. There would also be smaller, superimposed bulges on the sides facing toward and away from the sun.



The lunar gravity differential field at the Earth's surface is known as the tide-generating force. This is the primary mechanism that drives tidal action and explains two equipotential tidal bulges, accounting for two daily high waters.

Pictures and text from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tide, empahsis and bolding mine.

...Mars does not have water! Therefore it dose not have tides...

But then you say:

...Mars does have tides...

If you're going to attempt to instruct others, you really should learn about that which you are trying to communicate, and not contradict yourself in the same post.

No. We have inhaled JESUS fumes! You should try them.

Why isn't it good enough for you that God simply WILLS the waves to come and go?

Because God didn't WILL Mars to have water. But Mars isn't a planet anyway, just a point of light in the firmament that pagans once worshipped. Sounds like you've bought into the NASA lies.

Yes, because since the Bible is Truth, if you and science had been correct, the Bible would have said so.

That's just idiotic.
