I Have An Honest Question For Christians

[MaragonEvolved]

Genesis 1. And, a nuclear explosion. Tell me, what happens in a nuclear explosion to all the matter in range?

It's broken down into atoms?

 

[MaragonEvolved]

Again I will ask, you do know exactly what happens in an atomic explosion? It is a scientific fact. It will destroy in a direct hit. It will create a crator miles wide, deep and long. Everything will have been vaporized (rendered down into atomic parts).... it destroys matter. Your statement is scientifically wrong.

ATOMIC PARTS ARE MATTER!

>_< >_<

Guys, even if it's vaporized into dust it is STILL matter.

Matter is made of atoms which in turn is made of sub-atomic particles.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to split a sub-atomic particles.

Look at Violet's post, please.

 

[MaragonEvolved]

Look at Violet's post, please.

I did, and I replied to it.

Just because you cannot SEE sub-atomic particles and atoms without a microscope doesn't mean that matter isn't there.

Besides, you guys know that the EARTH is made of matter, right?
The explosion creates a CRATER in the earth, but there's still ground there.

 

[TheCheat1]

The energy of a nuclear explosive is initially released in the form of gamma rays and neutrons. When there is a surrounding material such as air, rock, or water, this radiation interacts with the material, rapidly heating it to an equilibrium temperature in about a microsecond. The hot material emits thermal radiation, mostly soft X-rays, which accounts for 75% of the energy of the explosion. In addition, the heating and vaporization of the surrounding material causes it to rapidly expand and the kinetic energy of this expansion accounts for almost all of the remaining energy. --Wikipedia

Notice "vaporization". That means destruction of.

 

[VioletAngel]

What do you mean it's not a scientific fact?

Do you have examples of matter or energy that can be created or destroyed?

I'm sorry you don't understand science, but I'm going to stop replying to you unless you can provide an example or accept scientific truth for what it is.

I have studied science more than enough. I have studied enough to see scientists disagree among themselves. If you learn from a handful of scientists who happen to be in agreement, then I can understand why you believe that way, but what happens when you go outside of that group and see the controversy that scientists go through just to try to find the truth? It is a very rocky road to try to navigate.

Saying something has been "vaporized" does not mean that matter has been destroyed. It means that it has been turned into vapor.
Vapor is another word for gas, which is a state of matter.
STILL MATTER.

It is still destroyed. You said it couldn't be destroyed.

In a different sub atomic form. The original form is destroyed.

All scientists are in agreement over the 1st Law of Thermodynamics.
To say otherwise tells me that you DON'T know what you're talking about.

Saying that the 1st Law of Thermodynamics isn't true is as silly as saying that gravity doesn't happen.

Hmmmmm..... some ground is left, but not all of it.

Guess I don't get your point here.

You're joking, right?

Please tell me that this is a joke and that you don't actually think that.

The FORM is not important.
It's still MATTER.

If you break any kind of matter down, be it a gas, or a pop can or a human or a couch, it's all broken down to atoms.
Atoms make up EVERYTHING.
Everything is made of atoms.

Atoms=matter.

The way I understand it is atoms make up matter. Atomic parts, or sub-atomic parts is not.

Yes atoms make up matter. A nuclear explosion breaks up the atoms, and it is no longer matter. I'm sure there are scientists that disagree on this point too.

Okay.

Okay.

Everything is made up of matter.
Anything you can see or touch, the air you breathe, everything alive.
All matter.

Matter is made up of atoms.

When you split an atom you get a sub-atomic particle.

You can't get any smaller than a sub-atomic particle because matter cannot be destroyed.

A sub-atomic particle is STILL MATTER.

Not really.... and I know scientists that have said so.

No.
There are NO scientists that disagree on this.

This is what you're missing,

Did you read what I linked?

This is a scientific LAW.
It has never been disputed by anyone.

Even when you split an atom it becomes a sub-atomic particle, and you CANNOT destroy a sub-atomic particle, no explosion ever could.

 

[MaragonEvolved]

Not really.... and I know scientists that have said so.

Link me a scientist who says that, or you're lying.
Sorry, but no one would EVER say that because its NOT TRUE.

 

[MaragonEvolved]

A sub-atomic particle has mass, it has momentum, it has volume.It is matter.
