Fire and Earth

A man can claim it worthy of scorn and ridicule to believe that an all-powerful, all-wise God created man, woman, and every other living creature from the virgin earth; but then without a hint of irony, he can go on to say that what is more worthy of belief is that a lightning bolt in fact created all life on earth and it did it by forcing itself upon a dirty mud puddle.  One wonders if he would be so confident about the loving, friendly and creative nature of electricity if he were asked to engage it in close intimate friendship.  Or even the fertility of mud puddles for that matter.
 
In commemoration of that fantastical day I have drawn up a scientifically inclined recreation of what I imagined happened just at the moment before fire met earth for the first time.

My Biology teacher explained the theory I think you're referring to back in high school. I consider myself to be on the religious side, but yeah...this is a bit flame bait-ish.  Even though I've had debates about this before and have found some pretty major problems (IMO) with the theories, I'd rather not join in the argument that's about to ensue. 

I have not been this confused all week, and I've been ill and everything!

@Knight244: If you want to start a pointless religious argument please don't do it on Giant Bomb, I don't believe in god and I don't feel the need to make a thread about just to try to make religious people feel they are wrong are to convert them. Can we just leave each other alone and let everyone believe whatever they want?
