336781 2005-03-22 07:44:00 Hey guys,
Okay, I am about to start a relatively big thread. My friend and I argued about the evolution theory. He said that he does not believe in evolution. This is one of his claims:

He said that the stars or planets are formed by the gravity of the shattered rocks as a result of the big bang is not true. He said that when these "rocks" (not sure what to call them) stuck together, there should be a repulsion force that go against the gravity and propel those "rocks" backwards. According to him, the repulsion force is 1000 times stronger than the gravity force. Any ideas?

More claims from him will be updated constantly.

336783 2005-03-22 07:56:00 Evolution theory is normally associated with how life has evolved/is evolving on earth, a theory disputed by creationists, not how stars formed. So wrong title for thread :) Terry Porritt (14)

336786 2005-03-22 08:53:00 I know of no such force....

can he give more info?

I think Jameskans friend may be thinking of sub-atomic forces, whereby electrostatic repulsion between protons is many millions of times stronger than the force of gravititational attraction between them.
So the big question in classical physics is how the extremely strong nuclear attraction forces holding an atomic nucleus together comes about.

9 Dark energy

IT IS one of the most famous, and most embarrassing, problems in physics. In 1998, astronomers discovered that the universe is expanding at ever faster speeds. It's an effect still searching for a cause - until then, everyone thought the universe's expansion was slowing down after the big bang. "Theorists are still floundering around, looking for a sensible explanation," says cosmologist Katherine Freese of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. "We're all hoping that upcoming observations of supernovae, of clusters of galaxies and so on will give us more clues."

One suggestion is that some property of empty space is responsible - cosmologists call it dark energy. But all attempts to pin it down have fallen woefully short. It's also possible that Einstein's theory of general relativity may need to be tweaked when applied to the very largest scales of the universe. "The field is still wide open," Freese says.

Very intelligent comment.
So you think neither is a reasonable explanation.
I think computers is probably your strong point.
