If uranium-238 can be Fused in a star why couldn’t lead be Fused directly and in tern all the elements in between.

It does take a pretty long time to get a supernova if you're starting from scratch.

The tragedy is that humans aren't convinced to change their minds by facts like this. They're convinced by good stories from their friends and family.

And Facebook, but I'm just repeating what you said, aren't I?

So we should start telling our family and friends good stories about being able to change your mind based on evidence and facts

Oh yeah, well were you there 4.5 billion years ago to see this so-called uranium 238?!?

Check mate, science!

destroy all religion for the sake of humanity

This would mean that there was more uranium around millions and billions of years in the past so why isn't there any evidence of prehistoric nukes in the fossil record

eat lead? this guy probably has already done that one

Probably not willingly. Republican States are often horrible at updating infrastructure, and due to the lack of a well educated population, they don't suffer much repercussion for that. Very high chance they grew up with or still have lead pipes.

This is false, the Flying Spaghetti Monster in his infinite noodly wisdom and power created the world yesterday and made the Earth appear billions of years old and the universe appear even older.

Dude is gonna come back at him with the first mention of lead in the bible and say, no this is where God created lead, lol.
