Why are there other planets?

[jumpingzebra]

I just want to know, if god just made 9 planets for our solar system then why did he only put life on one? Was he just drunk and felt like screwin around and makin a few more just for the hell of it? Or is there other reasons we don't know about.

[Moogy]

oh yeah

god's a drunkard

you'd better believe it

The question isn't if God was drunk, it's were u drunk when u posted this.

And heck, I dunno, I don't think ANYONE is SURE. But there's not really much we can do about it is there? The theory we have now (the scientific one) is that the Earth is at a somewhat perfect/miraculous distance from the sun that allows it to have a moderate temp unlike Venus which is really hot, and Mars which is freezing cold. That and other events like the volcanic activity that created organisms and bacteria and whatnot created life on this planet.

I'm hoping that answered your question. See? It pays to listen to ur bald and boring geography teacher.

Mars isn't freezing cold. There's life on Mars.

Actually, the best way to think of God is "God, the eternally indifferent." We're just one planet out of infinite many. And there are millions of planets with life.

I never said there wasn't life on Mars. But you're right about the millions of planets thing; think about it, there are gazillions of tramillions of planets out there in this universe, Earth is only one of them. It can't be that out of all those planets, ours is the only one with life.

When i said life i ment intelegent life not just some gay bacteria. And i already knew that, cocobeans.

really
God is good and u dont know what he thinks
and its my 100th post!

Millions of planets with life? Probably. How many have we found for sure? None. Yeah, even though we found over 100 planets outside our solar system, they all have pretty damn caustic environments.

Anyways, Mars is freezing cold. About -200 degrees in the day, I think. Even if that is at night, that is fucking extreme. If our planets average temperature dropped by ONLY SEVEN degrees, we would be in anouther ice age.

Life on mars? Probably. But if there were, it would be underground, for sure. And also, it would probably be microbial. Then again, there might not be life there at all. There might have BEEN life. Microbial, also. But you know, it will be pretty much impossible to be able to tell for a while, for sure.

I am Agnostic.

I believe in God, but I don't believe in certain things (50% of the stuff in the bible), and I don't follow the 10 commandments. I have morals, and I believe in karma instead. I've been pondering for a long while if the internet would affect your karma or not.. I doubt it though, since it's really hard to anything to do anything really bad on the net unless you're a cracker, which I am not.

Don't start up with this planet shit cause it will just cause a lot of people to go crazy because most people do have their own theories like I do. My theories are insane sometimes, the deeper the conversation the more you think my theories are possible which they probably arent.

[Tasuke]

Who realy cares about the other planets,
I know that they are mysterious and everything but they just kinda sit there.
I think we should just look out for our own *sses, that's all I'm sayin'

Theory:

I forgot how it got started...something to do with the big bang theory in which particles in space started to swirl like one gigant hurricane forcing all the heavier elements to move to the center(The sun). This is also why Mercury is the most dense planet, and Neptune the least. As the swirling slowed down other particles could cling/crash into each other...thus the formation of the early planets, Not including Pluto. Pluto rotates the opposite from the rest of the planets and rotates in a oblong shape. In theory there should be 10 plates. Each planet is twice the distance from the planet before it (If the distance between Mercury and Venus is 1. Then the distance between Venus and Earth is 2. Earth and Mars 4.) But after Mars, where there should be a planet, there is an asteroid belt, then Jupiter. The theory goes that Jupiter's mass was so great, that it created so much gravity, it rippped apart the early planet creating the asteriod belt.

FYI, If you had a large enough bath tub, Saturn would float in it.

[Diabolicus]

If their wasnt other planets, the entire galaxy's gravity balance would be thrown outta wack.

[aleco]

righttt but how did the matter come into being in the first place?
and how did man come about then
besides totally off-whack evolution

[Diabolicus]

umm god.
