The nebula is still the product of a star, so stars came first.

I can see you hijack threads with off topics and insults. Do people ignore you a lot? I'm assumiing you are younger than say 25...
Possibly. The hydrogen gas clouds in intergalactic space suggest elementary acretion, as in gravitons (if they truly exist) photons, Higgs fields, perhaps even "tempotrons" (my own speculated species) came long before stars. There is no perfect proof that all nebulae come from 1st generation stars.
Good point though.
But are planets made of hydrogen?
But doesn't life require the heavier elements?
The hubble (bifocals and reading chart installed ) has shown us forming star systems in the Orion Nebula especially... classic physics would tell us that the planets are completely formed and, with the nebular light still present, even life could be forming on them PRIOR to the star's ignition.
I have found no other religion, Koran, Confuscius or otherwise that gets that simple chronology correct.
If I ever had my doubts, which I have at times, the Hubble and other space stationed telescopes have confirmed my belief in that book as the written word of God.
Crank or Troll? Only time will tell.I'm less than 20 posts, so links are verbotten for a few more.
Let me toss that back at you:
It is nonsense to say my post is nonsense. Show me where you get information that dismisses my so-called "nonsense." Besides, this area is wide open to opinion that would compare findings in the cosmos to belief and opinion.
That needs a great deal of additional argument.
I'm assuming that you're referring to Genesis 1. I think that it's going to require a great deal of twisting and turning to square the Genesis chronology with that of scientific cosmology.
That's probably true for you, autobiographically.
But it sounds like a tremendous non-sequitur to me. How does one get from a fanciful layman's interpretation of some Hubble photographs to confidence that the Bible is "the written word of God"?(Traditional Buddhist cosmology speaks of countless world-systems. I don't see that idea in the Hebrew creation mythology. Having said that, I don't interpret that as evidence that Buddhist tradition derives from an omniscient source. I think that it's more likely to just be a lucky ancient guess.)
(Quotations from NIV.)
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light, and there was light.
4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.
5 God called the light day, and the darkness he called night. And there was evening, and there was morning the first day.
6 And God said, Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.
7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so.
8 God called the vault sky. And there was evening, and there was morning the second day.
9 And God said, Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear. And it was so.
10 God called the dry ground land, and the gathered waters he called seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds. And it was so.
12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
13 And there was evening, and there was morning the third day.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years,
15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth. And it was so.
16 God made two great light the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars.
17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth,
18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 And there was evening, and there was morningâ€"the fourth day.
20 And God said, Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.
21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 God blessed them and said, Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.
23 And there was evening, and there was morning the fifth day.
24 And God said, Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind. And it was so.
25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.
27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.
It's not a good idea to barge onto a discussion forum and immediately start insulting the people who post there. It gets you off to a bad start.
WTF? Are we getting into the chemistry of creationism???
Crank or Troll? Only time will tell.
This is to clear up the question I asked about which post was being menioned where someone failed to answer.
Interesting. I didn't think it was needed to hang around and make sure you knew which of two links that you yourself posted I was referring to. And yet you didn't get the right one. Even with Cosmic's more specific answer.
Fascinating.
Maybe a 3rd possibility? Neither.
The topic is not about the poster. It is about the topic. Thus I'll pretend I don't see off topic stuff from here forward.
okay, how do we know this?We know God gave Moses, in Genesis, the view that first came the heavens and the earth . . .
Syne's little brother.
We need better moderation here. How does this troll make it 62 posts?
