[edit] in category: creationism?

How did that related to creationism? ThiehZOYG I edit like Ken! 15:55, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

Not at all, apparently. The category was inserted by Template:FDAdisclaimer for some reason; removed, pending any objection. ~ Kupochama[1][2] 16:05, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

The following was added by a BoN but written in first-person so I have moved it here if anyone wants to do anything with it. Redchuck.gif ГенгисOur ignorance is God; what we know is science.Moderator 07:16, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

[edit] Wild speculation about a possible way of creating "genuine" alkaline water

Please note that I'm writing this paragraph based on hazy memories of year 12 chemistry. Someone who actually studied this beyond high school should probably check it for veracity.

Okay, so regular water is H2O, right? Well, not quite. Ordinary water naturally ionises itself into H+ ions and OH- ions at an absurdly tiny ratio. H+ ions are acidic, and OH- ions are alkaline. As water molecules split into one of each when they ionise, the pH of the water remains neutral. However, if you could add extra OH- ions to the water, then you would have a substance which looked like water, but was alkaline. A possible way of doing this would be adding hydrogen peroxide, which is H2O2 and ionises into two OH- ions. You would wind up with a substance which was "water with extra alkali".

Of course, hydrogen peroxide is, among other things, a fairly poisonous bleach. Also, not all of the peroxide molecules would ionise, so a sufficiently powerful chemical analysis could figure out that you'd been putting bleach in the water and selling it to people as a health product. This is probably a really stupid idea is what I'm saying.
