look, Michael, until you can explain to anyone what "different kinds" of photons exist, perhaps you'd better not tell us how we know what we know, huh?

There is only one KIND of photon, and many WAVELENGTHS and frequencies involved.
The bottom line here is that the current method to determine solar composition is based on the idea that you can count the number of photons from each element and use that number to determine how many atoms are present. That is not a scientifically sound method IMO since there is no method to account for ARRANGMENTS of the atoms and/or heat distribution.
The other pillar of the gas model is the BELIEF that all matter was created in the BB. Those two ASSUMPTIONS are the basis of the gas model theory. I think both ASSUMPTIONS are false.
