Evolutionists Stumped Again: Early Earth Had Oxygen Atmosphere

http://www.claytoncramer.com/weblog/...45887887309620 Oxygen Production on Early Earth Well hello to a massive crosspost. This really belongs in group talk.origins, or better yet, nowhere at all. I'll only say that sulphur isotopes are nowhere near the best evidence for oxygen in the atmosphere, or not, at a given date. I understand there are iron-bearing rocks that /rust/ when oxygen hits them, which plainly implies that oxygen wasn't around when they formed. On the other hand, I don't think the photochemistry of the pre-oxygen atmosphere of Earth is fully understood. Popular science news magazines and web sites are unfortunately under great pressure to print the new controversial story. One in particular almost never lets readers come away with the same understanding of the nature of the universe as before, if they can help it. Another consideration, particularly with a free web site, is that there is very little money indeed to spend on journalism. So there isn't much checking and there are a lot of press releases. |

The type of minerals formed were dependant on oxygen levels, which were fluctuating, so different beds have different chemical compositions.

You implying that because there was (some) oxygen some moronic being called God created the Earth? THERE IS NO GOD!! Only science. Do I smell Scientism here? Do you hold that there is only One Truth and that Science is its' name? No, there is only One Truth and you are the human proxy that a magic guy in the sky appointed to tell the rest of us about it. So..........go ahead we're waiting oh Great Keeper of the One Truth. How blessed we are to have had you and your kind throughout history. Just think where the human race might be without you. The mideast would probably be a mess. Extremists might be threatening the world to advance their "One Truth". Rob Brown |

:: Approximately 100%.
: And now you have claimed absolute truth. Really? You think "approximately" means "absolutely"? Hm. I guess they *do* both begin with the letter "a". : Every honest scientist knows that the Earth has always : had oxygen and that there was a higher oxygen content, : not a lower one and certainly not zero oxygen. And you call this "honesty". Hm. I'm sensing a pattern. Wayne Throop http://sheol.org/throopw |

The only way known to generate these abnormal ratios are reactions between sunlight and sulfurous volcanic gas in the absence of an ozone shield that would normally help screen out ultraviolet rays.

I understand there are iron-bearing rocks that /rust/ when oxygen hits them, which plainly implies that oxygen wasn't around when they formed. On the other hand, I don't think the photochemistry of the pre-oxygen atmosphere of Earth is fully understood. Oxygen is one of the most common elements on the Earth. The issue is not whether or not oxygen _existed_ on the Earth from its formation, the issue is the extent to which _free oxygen_ (or even oxygen gas molecules) existed and under what circumstances at what times. The earliest Earth is believed to have little or no oxygen gas; most of the oxygen was bound into carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis is believed to have begun releasing significant amounts of oxygen gas around 2.5 billion years ago, but this oxygen then bonded with other substances, most notably iron, creating the banded iron layers). By around 1.8 billion years ago, most of the available iron had already been combined into oxides, and from this point on the level of oxygen in the atmosphere increased, until other factors (such as the spread of oxygen-breathing organisms) brought it into a dynamic stability. If new discoveries changed the details of this time table, this would hardly invalidate evolutionary biology; it would merely mean that some things happened earlier or later than we had previously believed. - Jordan |
