@Aisling "No. 3.8 million years ago, the simplest life forms began to exist," Ioan answered. "Those were the life forms that would evolve into all different kinds of creatures: Dinosaurs, birds, horses, fish,... and humans."

@Aisling "We can only estimate that, but according to estimations, life formed about 3.8 million years ago," Ioan answered. "Well, life on Earth, we should better say."

@Aisling "There probably were more big bangs," Ioan answered. "Just not inside our universe. - Everything that we know is inside this universe. Space, matter, living creatures, energy, even time. And this universe had its beginnings with the big bang. Nobody knows what was before that, and there is no way of finding that out.
Our universe probably isn't infinite, which means that there are things outside the universe. Parallel universes probably, and all of them began at their own big bangs.
But the big bang - I mean, 'our' big bang - didn't directly create life. That happened much, much later. The big bang just gave the basics for life, so to say.
A short time after the big bang, there was nothing but hot plasma. This plasma became the first atoms, helium and hydrogen atoms. Those atoms formed more complex structures, like stars. All the other elements were created inside those stars and were set free in supernovae. - A supernova is the end of a star that has a certain mass."

@Aisling "Oh, believe me," Ioan said. "You don't need a god for that."
He looked at the sky, that was beginning to become dark. "And the evidence is right above you at the moment. If a lightyear is the distance that light travels in one year and we can see objects that are almost 14 billion lightyears away from us, the universe can't have been created some 6,000 years ago, as conventional creationism suggests. Otherwise, the light of those objects wouldn't have reached us yet. And if the universe had existed eternally, the sky would be glowing, since the light of every single object in the universe would have reached us already.
Also, there's something that is called 'cosmic redshift'. That term describes that the further away a galaxy is, the more reddish it is. That means that those galaxies are moving away from us in every direction that we look, which means that at one point in time, the mass of the entire universe must have been concentrated in one spot.
For some reason, this concentrated mass began to expand, which we call the big bang. But nobody knows what exactly caused the big bang. So, there's still plenty of room for God. He might still have created the universe. Just not like in the Bible. If he exists, he probably pressed a 'go' button, so to say."

@Aisling "He's an atheist as well," Ioan answered. "Just like Toma. We believe in science and not in non-evidence based things... no means to offend you, but there's just no proof at all for creationism to be right, while there is quite a lot of evidence for the big bang and evolution."

@Aisling Ioan shook his head. "I'm an atheist. Only Vladislaus is a Buddhist."

@Aisling Cool :)

@Aisling "It's when you offer something to a god or a holy or high person," Ioan answered. "Usually, it is food and water."

[MATURE] The Vampire RP

@Aisling Sure :)

@Aisling "Vladislaus has got an altar there," Ioan answered. "With a Buddha and plants and oblation and candles."

"But I'm sure Vlad won't mind it if we build a second one if that's necessary," he added via telepathy.
