    There are different theories on how life began on earth. There is the big bang theory which is where the it just kind of happened or something along the lines of it. Atheists believe in that. In case you didn't know, Atheists are non-believers in God! Other wise I would recommend reading the bible about the 7 day creation!

    I had to look it up: Panspermia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    To me it's as valid a theory as any.

    My question involves what accredited scientific institutions and/or individuals think on the subject. Im currently involved in a debate with friends and one of the rules were following is that we can source all of our points. We left off as this theroy hasn't been taken seriousely since the seventies.

    BTW plenty of Non-Atheists believe in the big bang theory, Im a Christian and personally accept the big bang even with its gaps and problems.

    This theory has never quite gone out of favor, esp with increased knowledge of conditions on other planets and extremophiles - life that lives under conditions not thought of previously capable of sustaining life - as a matter of fact, it was the 1970s that interest in the theory renewed.

    Try these sites for more info. The 2nd concerns an experiment on panspermia.

    FYI, it was a 6 day creation. He took a 24 hour nap on the 7th day because he was tired. He took 90% of those 6 days to create heaven and Earth. Then almost as an after thought, created Trillions and Trillions and trillions of other planets and stars at the last minute. Then he took a nappy-nap. God was exhausted from blinking things into exsistance. Then shortly after he created his gem and after looking at it for a short time, he woke up one day and decided to kill it. But not everything,, He selected some guy to gather 50 million animals within a week and put them on a small boat. And keep them healthy and well fed for a years time. Meanwhile, scooping the poop at an astonishingly fast rate. Then he had a son. Which he decided to send down to Earth to be tortured to death by his own people. Then made it a point that 90% of his subjects should suffer, starve, and be tortured in their lives. Yes, that make sense...
