1. Saving the planet from what?
2. If we're saving the planet, don't we want to have every bit of knowledge about the universe? What if knowledge of the origins of the universe could save our planet?
3. Why do WE have to save the planet? Do it yourself, you lazyass.
I was refering to things like pollution/global warming, diseases, unethical abuse of other humans and if you want, animals. Why not spend the money being put into the research of the origins of the universe into a cure for HIV, I'm sure the 35 million + people with it would be much appreaciative.
I do not see how knowing how the world came to be as productive. What would if solve? If you can give me an example I'd be more than happen to except it and hush my very loud and obnoxious mouth (complete with lack of red colour and huge font size).
Please refrain from calling me a lazyass

Right. No one should ever wonder and/or discuss and/or study anything remotely unnecessary...
So long as the argumentation is not merely "CUZ I THINK SO!!!11", such threads are acceptable. However, it does seem never to be so... But in theory, should such a thread with good argumentation come up, it needs to be preserved.
Perhaps I am being hyportical, naive and ignorant. If it is interesting to you then yeah okay I guess you should take happiness in it. But I don't see the study in it as ammounting to anything. It's pretty much untestable and requires abstract thought, similar to religion - the gases etc. were always there - God created the world or even God created the Big Bang.
I can't think of any scientific explaintion that tells me how the gases came to be - they just use the get out clause that because they have evidence that supports the Big Bang (red shift I think it's called), that it doesn't matter how the gases came to be.
So Big Bang experts - how did the gases etc. that created the Big Bang come to be?
Sorry if this is total bollocks, disregard it if you want. I have an anger at the origins of the Universe because no one knows, to me it is the most abstract of things and I'm always too tired to think about. You guys just get the posts of an embittered girl.
So sorry if I offended anyone with my ignorance.
