Re: Natural World
Way back in the second page of this thread, this claim of yours was addressed, but you didn't reply.
What is your rebuttal to this?
If you know anything about thermodynamics, you should be able to discuss these points.
If you don't, you won't be able to.

They are the same thing. Energy is heat, and power is the amount of energy applied over a span of time.
That cannot be the case because we have gravitational energy that is not related to heat.Also power is the amount of work over a span of time. Energy is the capacity to do work, common in many textbooks is wrong because energy can be unavailable to do work.
According to Richard Feynman we have no idea what energy is.We allow an event to go through its motions and if we take into account all the different interactions of forces before the event and after we arrive at a numerical value which conserves the quantity we call energy.

It's a shame when one must have a following for one to express one's opinion here.
You can express your uninformed opinion, and then your errors and misconceptions will be corrected by those who are informed.
If you refuse to correct your mistakes and choose to remain uninformed, it is your problem at that point.

New thought is chastized and outright banned.
If you cannot discuss your claims intelligently and in an informed manner, you aren't expressing "new thought".
You are just pulling a bunch of nonsense out of your backside.
