Pristine Big Bang Gas Found 220
New submitter cekerr sends this quote from Discovery News:
"U.S. scientists have found two interstellar clouds of original gas, which contain only original elements created moments after the universe's birth (abstract). Unlike everything else in the universe, the gas clouds have never mingled with elements forged later in stars. The existence of pristine gas that formed minutes after the Big Bang explosion, some 13.7 billion years ago, had been predicted, but never before observed."

A wise man undrstands and admits that statements whose truth proveably can not be determined are there only for our amusement and are generally useless for our understanding of the world, while the question why those statements can not be decided might be of some interest though ;)

You, sir, are a dumbass and in dire need of a dictionary.
atheism [ey-thee-iz-uhm] noun
1. the doctrine or belief that there is no God.
2. disbelief in the existence of a supreme being or beings
Atheism is an affirmative statement of belief in a position that has precisely as much empirical evidence supporting it as do the beliefs in the christian god, the islamic god, kali, or the flying spaghetti monster.
