Well, as most everybody knows it's Earth Week, and I was just wondering where it all started. It's a pretty good thing and I we where talking about it in science class. So if you have any answer for me please share it I would be delighted to know!

God created the earth and the heavens. The first people on earth was Adam and Eve. There's your answer have a nice day.

In Bill Brysons book 'a short history of nearly everything' the likelihood of us coming to earth as protein chains from other planets is discussed.  There is a wealth of evidence to support this theory.  The question that this brings up however, is who or where did the protein come from in the first place.  This is discussed as well, but even having read it twice, I'm still not sure what to think.

I think we would be very naive to believe we are the only life form in the universe.As vast and diverse as it is,I believe there has to be a reason for the formation of these planets to sustain life.That said,who knows when the life was present on these planets?And who knows what life forms are out there as we speak?Perhaps Mars and Pluto had life trillions of years ago but there are no remnants now for us to find.It's a fascinating topic.If you think about the possibilities,it's incredible.

I have studied earth science. \nFirst of all, their scientific name is a (best estimate) i.e. in their opinion. so the wee table is just their own version of what refers to modern day equivalent in science. \nThe only evidence they use to suggest the bible is talking about a dinosaur (rather than elephant or hippo) is a tail like a Cedar.  this could apply to crocodile but they don't mention that - apart from to say "oh -BTW it can't be a croc eh?" without actually giving any decent reason as to why.\nI don't know why I can't read Job 41 18-21without realising it breathes fire.  Such obviousness escapes me.  As also does the beetle chat. err...because one thing (and I haven't bothered to look up if it can) breathes fire, another surely can? What - how does that work? Because a flea can jump 50 times it's own heigth, can I? Also, all earth scientist would love to have a fire breathing lizard, but no studies have proved it's existance.   \nThen later (I'm skimming this now, there's loads of made up stuff), they say "Nobody has ever proven that the Bible contains any inaccurately recorded information" - well I'd kind of like to see the other way round.  Proving a negative is, well, impossible.  If I said there is a planet made of jelly a milllion light years away, does that make me correct until proven wrong? \nthen they do that wonderful thing of "hmm yes we have evidence of dinosaurs being created one day before man etc etc...but in order to see it you have to read through pages and pages of more subjective chat", personally I gave up cos if they are that confident they would put there evidence right in their on their page, or at least give a description of how.  \nThis page is someone's belief and doen't make me think anything other than what I have studied through rational science.

Since the first guy did not even bother to read your question...\n\nYea, you've hit one of the big mysteries in Science - the early atmosphere. Lots of people are doing research in this area.  I just read a great book that talks about it: "Genesis: The Scientific Qest for the origins of life." Great book - check it out.

What would you call it if you were looking at a blank open field, and all of a sudden you were watching the super bowl taking place in that field? First a field then a stadium with players and people?  Kind of an explosive idea, isnt it? The Word says that the Lord "SAID" Let there be light, and there was light, so I can only say He spoke the world into existance.  Science is explaining more and more how biblical things happened, science just wont admit it.  As far as Darwin and evolution, look at the human being from conception to birth, we cover just about all stages in utero.

It sounds like a world in the book "wrinkle in time" where the world is controlled by "IT." Divirsity is good because ideas pop up faster. And i do not believe god created the earth. Everything has a scientific explanation, but i thing god created the big bang.

With the current environmental situation being what it is, why shouldn't this be a credit.  Here are some thoughts.\n\nCurrently, the world is economy driven.  Factories are sprouting up all over the place and pollution is becoming a major problem.\n\nEveryday our food sources are in the news for some kind of health risk (e.g. mad cow, ecoli, bacteria etc.)\n\nIf people and more importantly youth were able to learn about agriculture and self-sustainability perhaps the next generations and subsequent generations could cut down on pollution and start making a difference.\n\nSecondly and more philosopically speaking, people need to recognize that we don't own Mother Earth.  That we are a part of it and we need to start respecting it.\n\nFurther to that, by learning about agriculture we are subject to a number of values and morals.  Some of those being, hard work, determination, seeing something through from start to finish, growth and care of nature etc.

earth is obviously created "naturally", in my opinion, there is no such thing as god, rather, earth was created coincidentally.\n\nwhen the solar system is formed, little bits of the sun is trapped by its own gravity, because they were fluid, they formed spheres, this explains why planets are round and not triangular. earth was one of them, it was once small and in habitable, it is only by chance an asteroid nearly the size of earth than collided and fused with earth, readjusting its orbit, size and atmosphere, this also provided the optimal conditions for simple organisms to form out of chemical reactions between chemicals found in the sea together with other natural phenomena like lightnings.\n\ngod had no hand in this, rather, god was created by man

lol that's interesting, but just too farfetched.  Carbon makes up so many other things, that to use this theory would say that almost the whole world is the devil.\n\nCarbon is in food, plants, animals, the air, the earth, and almost everything.  \n\nI'm sure there are so many other things that you could take out of context and just look at coincidental numbers, but they would have nothing to do with satan or evil.

I would say the earth needs less energy to heal, wouldn't you? Anyway I don't think there's a coincidence there. Lot's of things happen on random similar dates. After all, there's only 365 of them, plus one every four years. That's not really incredible odds.

Reminder: 5n Theory, all continents used to be attached to one another- so in theory this is highly possible- if two of every species has moved from place to place. Also remember, animals have a good sense of unusual events happening, like earthquakes and things, so they might have had the sense to know where to go. Then you might ask about the unicorns, but it is said that they were too stubborn to get on the ship... dragons and pegasuses... I have no idea about.

We came from primates(monkeys) before that lizards,fish,bacteria?,  could be anything, what didnt happen was that 2 people were put on a planet that took a week to "make".

I have celebrated Earth day for 13 years now...I'm very excited. My children and I will be going to a local park and running a booth for solar energy...then out for some beers(just for mama) and to celebrate the amazing planet we live on!!!....How about you????

I like this one I heard about the watch. If you found a watch on a rock in the middle of a field, how do you know someone made it? If you are like most these days, you'd point to the manufacturing mark on the back (or inside the cover if it was a pocket watch). So, how do you find proof of God or the Mother Goddess? If she is a creator wouldn't she continue to create? What on earth continues to create through a means which they really don't fully control? Life of course. So, we ourselves are the watch. Now what about ourselves proves that there must be an intelligent creator? Maybe our own intelligence (or lack there of at this moment in history) and maybe own uncanny ability to 'hear' inner wisdom. This wisdom has led many to extraordinary things. So, I disagree with Carl (Goddess I never thought I'd ever do that) that claiming the existence of Goddess is extraordinary. I have seen her work miracles in countless lives and there is record (yes, verifiable record) of millions more. I think the real miracle of this age isn't in finding Goddess, but in realizing how common she really is. Just as common as every watch still built with a crystal movement. I'm sorry, I think it is a small miracle that a tiny quartz crystal would be willing to vibrate that regularly so that we can all keep time.

You know people take things so lightly on yahoo answers when all you was trying to do was get some insight. I don' know if I can help you but I'll try. The first one sounds like a mediator is going to hit the planet. The 2 sounds like after the mediator hits that there will be no more water on the earth. The 3 one sounds like the earth will not be safe to live here anymore and we would have to find another planet to live on. The 4 sounds like we don't know about it now but their will probably be something like that gadget to help us live on these other planets. I think that in your past life these things has happen to you or else you wouldn't be dreaming these kind of things. And in the future it just might be that the stars connect because in the bible it speaks of the sun turning black so I think that you are on point. And that is why they keep going to space they just not telling us why. Come on they already know what's up there yet they keep going back. And why are they going back to see if they can live up there. If you remember a long time ago there was talk about going to space and having kids up there but only the rich people could go or something to that effect. e-mail me don't put it out there like that cause these kids don't know how to handle it.
