Hello and welcome to EvC

In science, you don't have to accept anything on faith - there is no "science of the gaps". What 'holes in your understanding of origins (bangers and toe) have you had to accept by faith? Just because you use faith to fill in the gaps doesn't mean it is bad science or not true. For now, given our clearest empirical understanding of origins, what do you accept on faith?You should not fill in the gaps with faith - there should be a definite and rational justification for any claim (with as much evidence as possible to support that claim). If there is a gap which cannot be filled, then we should say "We don't know yet"."There is no great invention, from fire to flying, which has not been hailed as an insult to some god." J. B. S. Haldane

Yes. Try Brig KlyceWhen wanting to know about astrobiology, it is always best to learn from an architect who runs a laundrette. "There is no great invention, from fire to flying, which has not been hailed as an insult to some god." J. B. S. Haldane

Show your posts to a friend/relative - ask them what they think. It's better than learning astrobiology from Panda's Thumby The Dogmatist. He is an amateur and that means he spent twenty years studying it for love. You may have a paid position and a diploma so are doing it for the belly and out of peer pressure. Vast difference. You cannot be helped until you admit that you have a problem. "There is no great invention, from fire to flying, which has not been hailed as an insult to some god." J. B. S. Haldane

You imagine I must have friends and relatives who think like yourself so upon reading what I write here are bound to decide that my mocking your dogma and second-hand opinions on physics is a sign of madness, so will let me know that in no uncertain terms. Your assumptions are unwarranted. Why would I need boring friends like that? No reason. You cannot be helped until you admit that you have a problem.

Re-reading this, I see that you do not actually have any friends or relatives in your life that you could show your posts to. You imagine I must have friends and relatives who think like yourself so upon reading what I write here are bound to decide that my mocking your dogma and second-hand opinions on physics is a sign of madness, so will let me know that in no uncertain terms. Your assumptions are unwarranted. Why would I need boring friends like that? No reason.This explains how you have managed to drift into madness, with no-one to help you realise. You cannot be helped until you admit that you have a problem.

This is a step in the right direction. Otherwise, madness is other people's problem, not any problem of the mad. It inconveniences other people first of all like any bad or criminal behaviour. The mad and bad are likely to be happy to be just like they are. So you should have written - show what your write to your relatives and friends as I hope they may have problems with it.It appears from this post that you might possibly realise that there is a gap between you and reality. You cannot be helped until you admit that you have a problem.

What is the quantity of positive integers that exist? No is no good. You need to back it up with reasoning.How many? Twenty three. Silly obstinate Panda's Thumby.

No, I am asking how many positive integers there are. That is self-referential, silly. Each integer expresses a quantity. So you are asking what is the quantity of quantities.It is not my fault if you cannot answer without facing your own delusions.

The word you are looking for is 'verb'. wave is what something does. But, unfortunately for you, 'wave' is also a noun.Or in your parlance: "wave is what we call it." Mad writes:
...and those are both nouns. An act needs an actor. With your failure to grasp even the most basic aspects of English, it is no surprise that your posts read like the inane scribblings of a brain-damaged marmot."There is no great invention, from fire to flying, which has not been hailed as an insult to some god."

Wrong. For the purposes of poetry and religion only both love and a lover are nouns.'Poetry' and 'religion' are also nouns. And so are many other words related to poetry and religion. Only a crazy person would claim otherwise. Mad writes:
And we are back to your inane scribblings. All the pop phyz religion is based on is a bunch of such exceptions and that is why they have the fluctuating nothing of the Big Bunk acting to create the Universe and the rest of the nonsense you are fed daily by the popphyz stars. You are happy to swallow their crap and to fake understanding, they are glad to fake communicating an explanation in order to get their upkeep in exchange. So every one is happy. Your grasp of English is embarrassing.If only you had a friend who could look at your posts and tell you what a horrible confused mess they are. But alas, from your own admission, you don't have any.

There are no other categories when talking about nouns.
Of course, all those are nouns as grammatical category. Mad writes:
Since no-one really understands what you are saying, it stands to reason that the problem lies with you. Love though is an abstraction devoid of physical properties and only a lover is a physical object that can move and love. Love does not belong in physics. Lovers can wave, love cannot do that other than in poetry. Love is an abstraction denoting the various actions of lovers. Simple.Can you grasp the difference or your skull is too thick for that? The only knowledge that can be gleaned from your repeated posts of "It is not ME!! It is everyone else!!" is that you are both mad by name and mad by nature.
Mad writes:
Do you not know? My grasp of English may be poor or may be not.Are you unable to tell how bad your English is? Well, then let me help you: your English is dreadful. I repeat: you should be embarrassed.Perhaps there is someone at your care-home that can confirm this.
