It's foolish to dismiss science for religion, but oppressing others' religious beliefs based on scientific fact is a delicate matter and should be avoided.
That being said, if science hasn't proved or disproved something, let the religious people have their beliefs and let them express them, there's no real harm. theories*

- Hindus are stressed all day because they're scared they get reborn as a fucking plant
- Jews are still waiting for some messias, lolwut?!
- Muslims preach peace and shit, and actually they're bombing cities, treat women with like 0 rights etc
- Christians are crazy aswell, the pope talking shit about how he dislikes condoms in africa while he has absolutely no clue what hes talking about. And to the so called "holy bible", its some book with 66 fairytales written by 40 authors in 3 languages on 3 continents over approximately 1600 years (i know this is a quote and exaggerated, but you get what i mean)
Now tell me, who would believe in any religion?
Sorry if i offend someone, thats just my 2 cents. atheists - sit around all day waiting for a chance to say something they think is smart bashing religion.
ok dudes, lets get back to the universe and shit.

I was watching TV this morning, before leaving for school. And they were talking about a planet that they had found a year or so ago, resembling Earth in appearance. The planet is 5x more massive than Earth; meaning gravity will be twice as strong. It does not rotate; meaning for one-half of the planet, it will always be daytime, and for the other half, it will always be nighttime. It is close to a red super-giant star; meaning the weather will be hot as hell, but bearable. They have conducted deeper analysis, and concluded that this one is the closest one to resemble Earth.

Sounds like a planet for badasses.
Anyone got a rocketship I can borrow?

They demonstrated simulated images and videos of the planet. It's so extreme, even Terror and Zezima would cry for mercy.

Actually...
If those stars are so much bigger than the sun, and they're in our galaxy as well, how come we can't ever see them?

The closest star to Earth apart from the sun is Alpha Centauri, which is located 4.37 light years away from us. It is a bit larger than our Sun. Alpha Centauri is in fact visible on a night sky as a dot. The hyper-giants that you see in the video are also visible on a night sky as a dot that is the same size as Alpha Centauri's. However, many of those hyper-giants are as far as 3000 light years away from us. So think about that... we are so fay away from these monster, that they still look like dots in our night sky regardless of their size.
