Re: Is the total net energy in the universe zero?
Regarding the website you linked, I believe the argument has a fatal flaw. The author writes:
"We can eliminate m from both terms (since it is a hypothetical particle anyway)..."
Do you understand math? Basic algebra?

Re: Is the total net energy in the universe zero?
take a look at the equations posted on the website and you'll see why m can be dropped out.

Re: Reply to PaulK #44
E does not equal mc 2. Instead, E = c 2.
And this is why I questioned your understanding of basic algebra.
1.postive energy can be calculated from E=mc2
2.E=mc2 can be written as E/m=c2
3. Negative energy can be calculated from E=m Mu G / R u
4. which can then be written as E/m=Mu G / R u
5. because m is the same value in both equations we can run the numbers and see if Ep/m is indeed equal to En/m

Re: Reply to PaulK #44
He is saying velocity of the speed of light squared equals all of the positive energy of the universe. This is untrue.
Again, no he's not. Please learn some basic algebra. What he is saying is:
Ep/m=c2

Re: This ain't about the physics
You might be interested to study the contributions of amateur scientists in the history of science.
amateur scientists are one thing, having the ignorance and arrogance to claim:
The physics, when rightly understood, do not allow the poor arguments poor forward by the atheists
after having been corrected on a matter of basic algebra is another.
