Ice is water that has frozen, water is a chemical substance composed of hydrogen and oxygen. Water doesn't stop being water when its temperature drops and it enters a solid phase, equally it doesn't stop being water when it boils (which is why they call it water vapor) - All three phases of the substance are forms of WATER.
Hail is made from water, just like rain. |
No! It is called steam. Not the same as water. Or ice.
QED (That is latin for "you are a dumbass") |
wikipedia:
| Quote | Water is a ubiquitous chemical substance that is composed of hydrogen and oxygen and is vital for all known forms of life.[1]
In typical usage, water refers only to its liquid form or state, but the substance also has a solid state, ice, and a gaseous state, water vapor or steam. Water covers 71% of the Earth's surface.[2] On Earth, it is found mostly in oceans and other large water bodies, with 1.6% of water below ground in aquifers and 0.001% in the air as vapor, clouds (formed of solid and liquid water particles suspended in air), and precipitation.[3] Oceans hold 97% of surface water, glaciers and polar ice caps 2.4%, and other land surface water such as rivers, lakes and ponds 0.6%. A very small amount of the Earth's water is contained within biological bodies and manufactured products. |

Well, there is your problem. You are quoting wiki-dope-ea. You also have a problem with reading comprehension. Note that it says water vapor or steam. "Or" means it can't be both, dipshit. Therefore, steam is not water.
It is no wonder evolution is a dead theory, with jokes like you advocating for it.
