According to the guy teaching this course:

"Every atom of hydrogen was created by the Big Bang. None since."

Oh, wait, that guy is you.

If anyone has questions, his phone number is at the top.

Boy, jimp, are you dumb. Hydrogen atom striped of electrons
are still hydrogen nuclei! Duh!

Nice try, still missed the point, but a hydrogen nuclei is not a
hydrogen atom.

Please see any dictionary for the definition of the word "atom".

It has to have an electron before it can be called a hydrogen atom.

Protons are created from the decay of free neutrons and if it captures
an electron, it becomes a new hydrogen atom.



You know jimp, all the hydrogen and most of the helium was created
in the fist three minutes, but there was no neutral hydrogen or helium
for several hundred thousand years, as the universe was too hot!

Hydrogen atoms were created in the big bang. Have you got some other
source of hydrogen? This reminds me of another question you can't seem
to answer, jimp, what's causing global warming?
