Yes sir, we are the dreaded creationists. It's fun to team up on us

Umm given that you seem to be often in a minority as a virtue of your own beliefs, it seems slightly odd to complain that the ratio isn`t 1:1.
the mathmatics of it is quite simple, for example, given a population of 20 posters, 5 of which form one ideological group and the remainder another, if all posters post at the same rate then there will be more posts from one group than the other...
We are`nt ganging up on you there are just more of us...

Why do you say that it is probably in the third or fourth generation?[/b][/QUOTE]
in the sun hydrogen atoms form helium through fusion, helium can in turn fuse forming heavier elements....
Given the prevalence of heavier atoms such as iron in the solar system we would say that it formed from the remnants of another star that went nova.....
The amount of heavier atoms present gives a result of 3-4 "stellar generations"

I'm not really expecting to gain any ground on this one. Whenever scientist encounter and obsticle all it requires is another imaginative theory.
If the clouds parted tomorrow and a golden beam of light shone down and a big booming voice said "Oi you, I am real I did it all!" I would have a bit of a problem thinking up a theory (a naturalistic one anyway)....
