If everything's an accident then why do the sun and moon look exactly the same size, like it says in Genesis when God put a light in the day sky and a matching light in the night sky?

Athiests: 0
Christians: 2

They don't even look like the same size. The moon looks a little bigger in the sky than the sun.

first of all, the partial eclipse pic in my second post proves that >>2536089 is retarded.

secondly, i know a fuckton more scie nce than your primitive little brain does.

thirdly, the fact that the sun and moon are similar in size really IS coincidence.

EK, you should probably drop your trip. Everyone hates you, even when you are right.

The angular diameter of the Sun is about the same as that of the Moon. [wikipedia]

>Herp but the gravity of Mars will distort light from the moon, making the moon look larger or smaller depending on the alignment of the planets.

No, fuck you, they both look about the same size every goddamn day and night.

>>2536151
Then you are just dumb.If you're going to say the corona of light surrounding the sun is part of it then it is a lot bigger than the sun. If you discard that, then your eclipse picture is no longer considered a valid representation of the subjective size of the material sun.
I honestly don't know how someone can be wrong on seemingly every occasion, but goddamn you are just crock full of failure.

why the fuck is that relevant?

the sun is still the same size as we see it; the photospehere is part of the sun.

you are pretty retarded

the corona is plasma, mainly hydrogen, at several million kelvin

the photosphere is far denser hydrogen at about 6000 kelvin

>>2536234
You are pretty dumb if you thought i meant 'corona' in the scientific sense. It's just the right word to use for my purpose, the fact the it actually means something else is irrelevant.
>>2536223
If the sun is the same size as we see it, the sun is no bigger than a nickle. The combination of distance and emitting huge quantities of energy distort the perceived size and perceived edge of the sun, respectively. This isn't hard to understand.

Crazy coincidence...actually, I take that back. It's not a coincidence at all. A man saw that the sun and the moon took up approximately the same amount of the sky, so when that man decided that he would make up a religion that would use to control other people, granting him great power and wealth, he wrote in Genesis that God put a light in the day sky and a matching light in the night sky. Of course, that's a vast simplification of the what actually happened, but the point remains is that many biblical scriptures are very irrational conclusions made from everyday observations.

Now everyone, say it with me!

l2bayes, god exists means higher chance they're the same because it shows evidence of design. So same size means high chance god exists. Simple math.

Just like how my penis is the exact same size as your mother's vagina, right?

Besides, you believe in a system which requires the existence of a being that violates many of the known axioms of the system. Clearly, you can't even into Occam's Razor.

G = god exists
Eq = equality of moon and sun's apparent size


P(G|Eq) = P(Eq|G)xP(G)/P(Eq)

P(G|Eq) = P(Eq|G)x0/P(Eq) = 0

But you forget that P represents the size of your penis. So if there is a god, you're a woman.
