Re: Re: Re: Reasons Why The End of The World Is Bullshit
Did I say mass...? Well I meant size....maybe mass too, I dont know but that does seem more unlikely.
From what I know, over a star's life cycle, it grows larger before ulmiately collapsing in on itself to form things like white dwarfs and black holes and other things. Some stars collapse, some stars expand to 100x their size and become red giants, some explode. Any way, EVENTUALLY, the sun will destroy us....whether we will be around to bw destroyed then, is questionable.

Not entirely correct, sir. In theory, the sun, after becoming a supernovae, will turn to the red giant stage, not white dwarf. After that it will become a planetary nebula.

No, once most to all of the hydrogen is burnt up in the center of a star...it expands becoming the Red Giant...once the star starts to fuse Iron for energy, it starts to collapse and at a certain point, it becomes unstable to blows it corona load all over space in a Nova(Pretty sexy... ).....not a supernova...that is reserved for massive massive stars....then the remaining matter slowly cools off in to a white dwarf whilst being surrounding by its stardust...stardust which is comprised of many elements, both dense and light matter. What do you think the Earth is made of?...that's right...start dust.
BTW, the next time you give someone a piece of gold as jewelry as a present, let them know that "it took billions of years to make this gold. and it is an interstellar present from me to you...made by the stars themselves just for you".
So, what's the deal with evolution? Approximately how many times would humans evolve "before the world ends"?

That's the thing, little bro, evolution is a non-stop process. It isn't a sudden poof of genetic change...it is a slow process that is happening right now.
Do a google search on "Life of a star" or "death of a star" and you should find what I am talking about.
The key point is fusion of Iron causes the star to cool off because the fusion process is endothermic and it absorbs energy from the star to perform fusion of Iron.
5 pages of devout posting refuting the absurd proclamation made in the original post of this thread by a........wait for it.........14 year old highschool freshman. my god.
seriously....a lot of you guys would be better off if you did what I do. Whenever you see a post that looks to be completely uneducated, absurd or assinine....makes you think it's probably a troll thread.........just click the thread-starters profile. You'll quickly see that these posters are either young children by their birth dates or it will be blank.......pretty much also affirming they are young children. Once that is known.......just correct their misunderstood logic or lack of education on the subject they are attempting to discuss (not their fault, they're young...haven't been educated yet) and advise them to stay in school and learn for themselves. It will save you a lot of posting.
once is a correction......two, three, four, etc. "corrections" is called a debate. debating anything with a child of 14 years just seems to be a waste of one's time.
I wasn't putting anyone down.....just didn't think everyone who was debating was aware of whom they were debating with, hence the tip on checking the profile when you see an absurd post.
I've been bored and engaged 14 year old kids in debates before for fun......to kill time. There was this one kid who went by the name chibi boy (since changed to greensomethingoranother on here). This kid was adament about whales being fish.......earth losing matter and mass by animals walking on it and all kinds of other wild idiocy. I had a bit of fun....but I was bored and wasn't taking it serious because I already knew who I was debating with. I would have felt sick to my stomach to have been taking something serious and thinking someone was that moronic only to find out it was a 14 year old kid with no education. Just a tip.
