- RichPowers, on 10/10/2007, -0/+44Still not as cool as the SOMBRERO GALAXY!
http://www.astro.virginia.edu/whyastro/sombrero.jpg - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -6/+21Does it work? 'Cause to me, the size of the universe is the clearest, most obvious evidence against Creationists. I mean, either the light from distant galaxies has been traveling for millions of years, or God is trying to trick us, and I have principles - I won't worship any God who tries to trick me.
- abid786, on 10/10/2007, -9/+24Thanks for the picture. I show images like this to idiots who think the earth/universe is 6000 years old.
- arcooke, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14Ultra-high-res version. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5e/M104_ngc4594_sombrero_galaxy_hi-res.jpg
- Anliz, on 10/10/2007, -5/+18Why do people think that arguing about religion on the internet goes anywhere productive?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -5/+17Who's arguing religion? Creationist are pseudo-scientific frauds who attack and malign science for their own retarded beliefs. It has nothing to do with religion and all to do with extremism and mental retardation.

- EuphopiaB, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13But see, God MADE all of the distant stars to make us THINK there was reason and logic to the universe that explains it to be Godless. It is a test of faith.
I only pray that one day his noodly appendage will touch you, too. - Buddhist, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12*crickets*
- tyywebb, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10I see it all makes perfect sense now! God created the universe 13 billion years ago, but got bored eventually and 6000 years ago decided to make us out of clay! Thank god we have you on the internet so you can set those IDIOTS straight!
- Xvash2, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10Anyone else realize that anywhere in there could be multiple intelligent civilizations?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -4/+11It doens't work on those guys. Some Creationist apologist actually made up some hypotheses that the speed of light is varible which apparently explains why such distant objects is only 6000 years old...they don't have any evidence but they never do.
- digidelia, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9mmm, flying spaghetti monster
- davidhildreth, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8ah *****, now i wanna live there
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Hey, ***** moron, not everyone wants to read thinly veiled unfunny political "jokes" all the time. Find another way to use your agenda.
- milomilomilo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7thats now my new wallpaper.
Damn, space is amazing! - gtlogic, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6and i bet their digg's comment system doesn't suck as bad
- shyner, on 10/10/2007, -9/+15"A Parallelogram-Shaped Meal"? How about some pi for dessert?
ZING! - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8Why can't we collectively work as a society to getting the ***** of this planet. Exploration of space is the only peaceful thing that can unite us as species.

I figured by 2007 we'd have a research station on Mars and regular flights to the moon. Human race FTL.
- garryw, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4trapezoid galaxy really
- Bleekster, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Looks fantastic. Gotta love Space.
- Utils, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Correct answer.
- thydzik, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4wow, that is beautiful.
- tyywebb, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Wow a type 3 civilization that decided to make a gigantic parallelogram for kicks. That is wild.
- beankitty, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4you really think that with hundreds of billions of galaxies theres no other life forms? that's almost as stupid as believing in god!
- ItsMyWii, on 10/10/2007, -3/+6How can we see that far but not smell that far? By God I have an idea! A telescope through which you can smell things! I'll call it the Smell-o-Scope!
- Thefatheroftime, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4But how can this be?
The universe is 6000 years old, that's not nearly enough time for the light from this galaxy to get to us. I don't...can't...but how...argggh...belief system...breaking down. Blech!!! - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Not if you take Genesis metaphorically... Though I have a hard time with the whole concept of picking and choosing which parts are "real" and which ones are "metaphorical."
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5I don't understand why that would imply him trying to trick us. If he is putting the stars in the universe to give light to the earth (as stated in Gen 1:17), then it wouldn't make sense to put them there and wait millions of years for the light to show up...
- EuphopiaB, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4What does the ratio of diameter to circumference of a circle have to do with an oddly-shaped astronomical occurrence?
- cyberghost232, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2As I look at the eclipse at 3:31 am
- Quakee, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4Just like he placed dinosaur bones in the earth to test our faith.
- XaeroVincent, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Haha... there are about 80 billion galaxies in the observable universe and I wouldn't be suprised if nearly all of them contained at least one dominate life form and civilization. From that perspective, we can only imagine our civilization and tiny inhabited isle (earth) as primitive at best.
- colto, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5Your an ass.
- Bleekster, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Agreed.
- neodorian, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Barred spiral?
/thank you Sagan - tobycloud, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Is it just me, or does the picture clearly state "elliptical"?
- Cyberen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1There are billions of stars in each of these. A good portion of stars have planets surrounding them (considering all the extrasolar planets that have been found). It would be far more unlikely that there are no aliens anywhere instead of galaxies everywhere teeming with life.
- mahdaeng, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Viva la galaxia!
- ICSU, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1It is. It contains females after all.
- mahdaeng, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Dodecahedrons for me, thank you very much.
- mahdaeng, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I don't remember ever hearing a creationist say that the universe was 6000 years old. Quite the contrary, actually. The only thing I've heard them say related to a 6000 year period is that human history is 6000 years old.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3My...what a big sombrero you have there...
- tyywebb, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2No space is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too big.
- tyywebb, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1New background!
- brianbb98, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1oh you beat me to it!
- mahdaeng, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1"When God started, there was nothing. No Earth, no sun, no stars, absolute nothingness. Go read Genesis again, idiot, 'cause you very clearly fail."
Actually, no. Learn some Hebrew and read Genesis again. The word translated in English as "create" (as in your assertion of "creatio ex nihilo") is "baurau", which connotes organization, not creation out of nothing. A better translation would be that God organized the earth - built it out of existing materials.
Before you call someone else an idiot, do a little more research so you don't look like one yourself. -
