quote: Your concluding back to front. Light's attributes are specific and it exists because it can prevail the forces of chaos and entropy - else it would never have emerged. Theories are a later perspective of a status quo or of an operating construct. Eg. ToE comes after a process is already in action mode - else what whoud ToE theorise about? However, I think light travels on its own trajectories, and its bending or curving is due to our subjective position and vista. If you take a water hose and direct the water in a straight line - we will see a different angle if we are on a different angle. Water retracting in different mediums also exhibit this trait - the light is not bending when passing through water, or when around mass bodies in space. The matrix which contains us, space, is changing due to dents made by the body mass of stars - as in a trampoline.

I've been contacted by the cabal and have been instructed to capitulate.
I only considered doing the calculation after posting and didn't actually know how to go about it, so I had to devise the method as well as look up the particulars. I'll try again and if I don't get 4.81”109 I'll get back to you. Thanks Kindly A mind changed against its will is of the same opinion still.

I would tend to agree that we don't know the answers to the most vital questions: what we are and why we are here on this tiny speck in the universe called earth, where we came from, where the universe came from, what life is, what the universe is, what life is, etc. It's depressing how small, insignificant, unaware and oblivious we are in the grand scheme of things in the universe with our puny minds and our thirst for knowledge. What's more depressing is that so far there has been no indication of an existence of god, and this is not only depressing, it's frightening how alone we are by ourselves in this most indifferent thing we call nature.

The operative factor here is that cars don't just happen of themselves - nothing which exhibits and displays a complexity does that, or can be accepted as doing that - even where there is no proof of a complex car maker or any other complex structure: there is really no such thing as 'nature' - nor is there anything natural about complexities emerging from non- or less complex. Meaning that a complex creator God is an impossibility, and a complex universe without a God is an impossibility. Indeed, complexity, according to you, is impossible.

The one that always gets me is when some Braniac physics guy uses the ants on the surface of an inflating balloon analogy to explain proper motions* in the expansion of space and doesn't take into consideration the possibility of the ants having a latex allergy.
I promise you that I will take chaos theory into account when I get around to building my space wall, but so long as I only intend to use it as a teaching aid specific to the point I am trying to get across I'll simplify the situation to the necessary aspects. You seem to be doing a very good job of confusing the issue well beyond your understanding, leaving yourself free to more easily accept your crep-crap as the more reasonable explanation. I'll put in a good word for you and see if we can get you promoted to 3bs. AbE: *Proper motion was a poor choice because it is already used to describe motion perpendicular to ones line of sight. Does anyone have a term more fitting to the motions of the galaxies due to the local environment? I'm drawing a blank. Thanks. Edited by lyx2no, : To seek the guidance of my peers.

Why so? Cars do reproduce. Get the fuck outta here, really?! Is there car porn?! Im in, maybe a couple of Asian cars...sweeeet!

That is the ridiculous factor here, not mine. The operative factor is that if you'd like to compare a natural process like reproduction to what auto manufacturers do in an assembly line then ok, whatever.
If you examine your premise - there is nothing which negates science and logic more than that premise. Your science stops abruptly at a certain treshold, and becomes less than sci-fi, witchraft and socery. The correct conclusion is yes, but we cannot prove it. One step further than that says, if we could prove it, that proof would be less transcendent the the universe. Here, the lack of proof and the enigma of not knowing is the only proof which is credible. We have to acknowledge, we are trust in a diobolical situation, on many levels. We don't know what we are, where we came from, why, how, or where we're going - or if there is a place to go - or to not go. That the primary 'A' factor is so fastidiously barred, to all, including theologists and scientists, does not infer or suggest there is nothing - just the reverse. We know nothing of the most basic factor of all: our origins. Its un-natural. And this means, designed that way - intentional and purposeful, blatantly obvious. Try to hide some fact from everyone, who are desperate to find out: its imposiible, and far more demanding a feat that not hiding it. Imagine telling a cop you don't know where your from - will he think you a brilliant scientist!? Could you clarify any of that with something coherent that I can respond to? You make absolutly no sense. What are you saying that you want to just answer these questions with 'God did it'? Whatever, ok. I thought you were gonna actually make a point. If you want to show the scientific community that God is the best answer then go ahead, however, if your arguement is gonna sound like anything you've written here then I suggest you rethink that idea Edited by onifre, : No reason given.

Does someone need a hug? Why do you need a God? Do you think you are owed something special like eternal life simply for the random act of being born? Maybe you hold yourself in too high of a regard in comparison to the rest of the animal kingdom? Try smoking some pot, or take some LSD, this should help All great truths begin as blasphemies

I'm thinking if the two should ever meet in the real world they'd meld together like drops of mercury.

It could be a match made in heaven. LOL...Nicely done All great truths begin as blasphemies I smoke pot. If this bothers anyone, I suggest you look around at the world in which we live and shut your fuckin' mouth.

Everything is so pointless, yet everything is real and existing, it's frightening... This is a human perspective, to the Universe YOU don't make sense. There's a great book written by the Dalai Lama called, "The Universe in a single Atom", it may be a good read for you. All great truths begin as blasphemies I smoke pot.

AbE: Sorry, that's too glib even for me. Straight, universally, is a relative term in the same way level is globally. A level brick wall will rejoin itself if built all the way around the Earth. For the bar to be straight it must follow the curvature of the Universe to rejoin itself. Your wall the length of the circumference of the planet is not going to be perfectly level for that length. If it is perfectly levelfor the whole length it is going to end up resting on the earth like a teeter totter. The same with my bar if it is perfectly straight. No way is it going to rejoin itself it it is a perfectly straight physical bar. The properties of it just don't allow for that. My point in all this is to argue for static boundless/infinite space. There are no properties of space which are going to overcome the properties of a straight steel straight edge bar so as to prevent it from going straight out into space into infinity. The bar is used as a model only. Of course we know it's impossible for a bar to keep from bending from the weight etc but even then it wouldn't rejoin to the same location. I'm all eyes and ears if someone can show otherwise. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW. The immeasurable present eternally extends the infinite past and infinitely consumes the eternal future.

The property of the bar makes my point for boundless space and you're trying to shift the focus on your ideology of space, assuming it's circular. Nobody knows how big the universe is. The alleged bounds of it are not visible. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW. The immeasurable present eternally extends the infinite past and infinitely consumes the eternal future.

For clarity of explanation it is perfectly acceptable to invent super inflexible metals and the forges to produce them. So long as one isn’t using the invented “magic” properties to make the point in question work where it wouldn’t work without them. This is the basic stuff of thought experiments and shouldn’t need to be explained (It’s not to you, Mr. Saw, that I’m explaining this.) He who thinks Schrodinger had nefarious designs on cats may have missed the point. Anyway, let us make this steel bar: What method will you, Buzsaw, to measure its straightness? I grant you perfect instruments and skills. You need only explain the mechanical activities you exercise to measure the bar. No theory, no philosophy. This is a real question, and a real attempt to answer it can be instructive. I’d appreciate it if you give it a well thought out try.
