"Forget Jesus, the stars died for us"

Lawrence Krauss:

"Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics.

You are all stardust.

You couldn't be here if stars hadn't exploded. Because the elements, the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution weren't created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars. And the only way they could get into your body is if the stars were kind enough to explode.

So forget Jesus. The stars died so you could be here today."

  • LOL. Look at the laymen denying Physics. Some people need to get an education.

    • You are the fool then...not denying anything. Just not believing what is being spoon feed by our educators. They do not want you to THINK for yourself. No offense but you are probably another arrogant educated idiot that can check appropriate boxes huh? Regurgitate what they want on their tests. There were many members of the "flat earth society" that simply guffawed at the very idea of a round earth. Oh and then there was the "earth is the center of the universe" thingy...Wh More..

    • Funny how you cannot refute anything that physics does tell us. Of course we do not know everything and keep adding to our knowledge. Skepticism is the best part of science. It makes us question and refine what we know.

      The video you posted is a joke. Nothing but straw man arguments. It refutes nothing in science that we have proven, observed, tested. Try and learn something of science. Try using some critical thinking.

    • Why is it a "joke"? Is it because it was not taught to you? Is it because it WOULD answer many unanswerable questions of the universe including the megalithic structures around our world? What exactly is the joke here??? You should learn critical thinking and unbiased judgments before you opine!

      Heard of Coral Castle?

      Just saying that just because "science" says does not make it so. Proof? What proof has science/cosmologists given us about s More..

    • get back under your rock you moron. You have not had a proper lesson in science have you? next you'll tell us all about how the world is 6000 years old and the moon is made of cheese and thats why "they" never went to the moon, because they didnt bring any yellow yummyness back for a platter.

  • jesus was actually an emo and homosexual. He probably sucked more dicks than there are christians today. All christians and other religious people are basically cocksuckers, that's what religion is all about, sucking dicks.
    i'm an atheist btw.

    • Great! You see, I've just been having a long discussion with your fellow atheists, Entinlude and -stile-, who have been telling me how perfectly moral atheists can be and how rational they are compared to religious believers.

      And I'll just say "Sure, rational and moral, just like rage1 who compulsively blends anti-religion with homophobia in a childish string of obscenities that would would make a fourteen year old embarrassed."

      Oops. You're fourteen, aren't you?

  • i hope that stardust can save you when the one you call Jesus come back.

    Matthews 10:33-35

    33. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

    34. Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

    35. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

  • Very poetic. But the stars don't care and they never did care. Jesus did care. And he still does.

    • We certainly do know ... i recommend brushing up on spectroscopy/spectrometry for the missing information. I would add that the cool thing about science is ... you don't have to take it on faith! you can do the experiments yourself!
