There is no "extra" soil making these layers. Wind blows dirt, dust and sand over everything. Volcanoes erupt putting even more shit up in the air that comes down on to that dirt, dust and sand. Then plants grow on that. The plants catch even more dust, dirt and sand. The plants die and add to that collection of shit piling up over what was originally under all of that. Now spend millions of years having that happen and you get layers and layers of shit under other shit. You suddenly get massive hills here and there. Cut the hillside open and you have a time machine

The problem is the rational atheists take a whole lot on faith.
Like if I say "Why does life exist on Earth and nowhere else? No evidence of life outside of earth exists." They will tell us they know we aren't alone in the universe, that there is alien life out there, they just don't have any proof, they just know it is out there.

>>
>>223112850
everything outside of one's own personal first person perspective lifetime experience is taken entirely on faith, fren
but yes atheists typically have a hard time accepting this, because faith is a no-no word to most
>They will tell us they know we aren't alone in the universe, that there is alien life out there, they just don't have any proof, they just know it is out there.
the best explanation honestly is as much a guess as most other things, but a solid one; there are so many fucking galaxies in the visible universe and thus so many more stars and planets than that, for us to be it even if we're accidental
there is almost no logical chance this is the sole planet out of what, trillions? more? that developed any life at all, and thus can't be the sole one to develop sapience either
the realistic chances of this are fucking astronomical, BUT would still work out to be something like one sapient species per galaxy and that's like the best chances, flukes like star trek universe hundreds of species in one aside
and there is zero guarantee anything like FTL or pencil through paper space folding shit is EVER possible no matter how far tech advances, so even some galaxy with 2 species on the opposing ends could be effectively forever alone in the universe, unable to even detect one another
>>
God and aliens theoretically both could exist right now and there's absolutely no way for us to know they did or didn't til they decided to show up

hopefully in the former case it would be to tell us something more helpful than "I need you to cut part of your dick off and give it to the nice old lady over there so she can smear it on her face"
>>
>>223113076
Yeah, but if reality is a simulation, then the lack of aliens could be a feature and not a bug
Maybe some xenophobic future humans made a simulation of what life was like before first contact, before those damn xenos started influencing our culture and politics. A universe free from xeno interference.
>>223113135
The more interesting thing is Aliens could prove and disprove religion simultaneously. An advanced alien species can show up and say "A few of our species infiltrated your planet in the past. Their names were Moses, Jesus, Buddha and Mohamed", and then show alien records demonstrating their presence on earth 3500, 2500, 2000 and 1400 years ago. Showing yes these figures could perform miracles, but the source of their power was Alien technology and not divine might.

Arthur C Clarke is famous for saying "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.". Michael Shermer suggested "Any sufficiently advanced extraterrestrial intelligence is indistinguishable from God."

We can watch evolution in real time too and surmise that it's not a new concept. I don't think any politically motivated scientists are retroactively changing previous knowledge to fill some agenda.

The mental gymnastics you doubters of science must go through to invalidate everything we've learned must be exhausting.
And I don't know what "strangers outside of my lifetime" is supposed to mean.
You feel better when you know and can interact directly with the people who learned the things? If they are dead and gone you question it??

It's like you just have no trust in anything. You could go to some international museum composed of the top experts' findings with plenty of artifacts and just say "duh.... you weren't there and I wasn't there so how do we REALLY know this isn't all just fake?? Same exact thing as trusting in my lord."

I hate that you people exist and are so fucking contrarian.
If you had any education you'd trust in the education of others.

I had a guy effectively do exactly pic rel in a real life conversation once, no shit
he did not like what I was saying since he was wrong and I was proving it and he did not want to admit it so this negro literally started yelling "I CAN'T HEAR YOU LALALALALA" as loud as he could over me talking

I don't know what makes you think this. There could be an epidemic infection or an asteroid or nuclear war. I doubt even the most prepared "bunkers" are provisioned to stay underground for 500 or more years. There's no going to space and supporting some orbiting greenhouse and starting over. Those are such slim chances. It could all end at any time.

So-called pro-science people were so anxious to avoid the m-word that they took a stance that's less accurate than the supposed Creationist caricature. Old World monkeys are more closely related to apes (and humans) than they are to New World monkeys, meaning that to say that we're not descended from monkeys is to say that the most recent common ancestor of monkeys was not a monkey.

>most people also have no idea how most modern tech particularly infrastructure tech even functions let alone how to repair it or make more

a carrington event in a generation or more, a relative handful of people happening to die off, and we are fucked

my tinfoil hat 0 proof wild concept conspiracy theory is that aliens with super advance tech live super long/have companies that exist for unfathomably long times, so they start concocting absurdly long time scale business schemes that require very little start up money but potentially huge profits. stuff like founding a religion on a backwater shithole planet, then thousands of years later showing back up and selling an autographed photo of jesus for a trillion dollars

>Why does life exist on Earth and nowhere else
Because it comes down to a lot of factors that play a role in allowing for complex life to form on a planet. We also must take into account physical limitations brought about by the vastness of space making normal basic contact very unlikely. There's an equation constantly being tweaked with each new variable we learn about that plays a role in maintain life on Earth and it makes finding life like us very low. One estimate puts it at an average of 36 other civilizations out there technologically the same as us but we'll never know because of our galaxy having hundreds of billions of stars in it and most of them are not in favour of supporting life. And if we ever reach a level where we can colonize distant stars it's most likely a very slow process in generational ships going near lightspeed for hundreds of years.

Future is wild was ass. All speculated clades they thought would eventually take over from their current niches are the ones who were systematically put in those niches by tetrapods. If anything the next big thing will be to mammals what birds are to reptiles. Cephalopods have been around since long before our common ancestors with extant fishes was even born and they went from being the biggest things in the sea to being on the menu of biggest things for like 300 million years and counting.

Eh, it was fun, but evolution is pretty limited. Even if all tetrapods went extinct some fish would probably walk out of water and start everything all over again.
