Jerry said: "That will cause an explosion whether you have a theory to explain why or not."

Yes, but when the U235 is slammed together and an explosion took place this event told us something factual about the behavior of matter and the basic structure of the Universe. When the lithium 6 "joined in the fun" this event told us something factual about the behavior of matter and the basic structure of the Universe. Theory or no theory, discoveries such as these are important in terms of furthering our understanding of the cosmos. Speaking of energy releasing devices, why is it Jerry, in your opinion, that it has not been possible to bridge the gap in energy release between TNT and nuclear weapons despite numerous efforts to do so? If your anything goes humanity does not really understand much about the Universe view is correct, then why have so many efforts in this direction failed? Could it be that previous discoveries coupled with theory are, again, telling us that "anything goes" doesn't work.

As for creationism, my view is that cosmic evolution and biochemical evolution are all that is needed to explain how things got to be the way they are right now; even if these ideas have to be modified that does not mean that creationist is correct or required. Having said that, these scientific ideas, and probably no science, can tell us why there is something rather than nothing. I find it troubling when cosmologists say the Universe went from nothing to Big Bang. The Universe and nothing in the previous sentence are key to seeing why this popular notion is circular and thus logically flawed. Whatever happened to the idea that the Universe is infinite in space and time even though its recent appearance and characteristics may trick us into thinking its not.
