...if you thought "evolving water" was bad, take a gander at this:

If [the Big Bang] did occur, then as we observe everything in the universe they should be the same. Coming from the same "pot" all the planets should be made of the same "stuff."

If all matter was blown out of the core at a consistent speed, then all the planets should be rotating at about the same speed day in and day out.
