Default Cause & Effect ~ The Wind


"Joe" wrote in message

Did all of the dynamics that need to be in place to make winds just
appear one day on it's own with design or fore thought, or did it
require some creation?

An intelligent design?

And since we know the dynamics of wind are produced by the variations
of temp on the earth we have to assume the earth and the universe are
included in the basics formulations to answering the questions.

Albert Einstein acknowledges that the mind behind the universe is a
"superintelligence of such superiority that, compared with it, all the
systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly
insignificant reflection." and yet people like Rob do not accept a
higher intelligent or creator of all including the wind.

He thinks he is superior to all, he thinks he created life.

The best answer can be attributed to the real Cyrano de Bergerac

People would ask why doesn't x happen or why doesn't y happen, all used to
confirm the existence of a grand creator. His reply was simply, "How could
it be anything else?".

Most of the wind is caused by relative motion due to the earth's rotation.
Why does the jetstream flow against the earth's rotation? With sunrise
heating and the like it should flow in the other direction. Think about it.

Why do ocean currents flow against the earth's rotation at the equator
(where the tangential velocity of rotation is the greatest) but not at the
latitude extremes?

Go ask an earth "scientist". They'll tell you it all comes from pressure,
temperature, hairspray, SUV's etc. Ask a physicist, they'll tell you it all
comes from the earth's rotation.

Why do hurricanes rotate in a particular direction? If the earth turned in
the other direction would hurricanes reverse rotation?

The major cause of sea level changes is the moon, the second major cause is
the sun. Earth scientists will tell you it is "global warming" - ie driving
SUV's!
