Speculations

I had another perpetual motion idea, and this time I made a 5 minute website about it. http://www.freewebs.com/frankthompson Could somebody please tell me why this won't work?

I saw this thing on the history channel, and several like it on discovery, about how almost every civilization before modern times claims that gods came from the sky and gave them information. These "scientists" were talking about the gods are aliens. I think that the people that made those programs watched the Stargate movie too many times. Which brings up the people also said the pyramids were made by aliens.

So many of us have wondered what is the truth of creation? Both Religion and Science have satisfying explanation for it , however both sides conflict eachother and No one really tries to put those 2 together and come up with solution. I have studied ancient sumerians - the first human civilization here on earth and they seemed to have just the right logical explanation. Sumerian knowledge was somewhat denied and avoided by media for some reason, I have rearly saw anything from media that talked about them. The sumerian tablets which were CARBON DATED to prove the age contain very controversial knowledge which seems to be LOGICAL. They explain the creation of huma…

The Egyptian pyramids were machines designed to produce clean non toxic, disease free water. The technology to achieve this feat, was remarkable to say the least. Water, the precious substance on this planet, could only ensure survival if it was sacred, that is not drawn from ground waters, and that included the Nile ! >

This is really wierd and would probably end up here anyway, so i went ahead and made it here. This is kinda an offshoot of a thread about photons being matter or energy. Matter and energy are the same thing. We all know that. Someone made an interesting post on the thread. He said there may be other forms of Matter/Energy. The photon is a blur between matter and energy, and energy and matter are different forms of the same thing. Gravitons are a blur between matter, space, and time. Does that mean space and time are forms of energy/matter?

I don't know, but I think I've had an out of body experience. At least that's what it seemed like, and it's happened more than once. I can lie down and I sort of go into a paralysis or something. It's almost like I'm asleep, only I can see everything around me. And if I concentrate it seems as though I can leave my body. I see myself and everything around me, and I can go into the sky and things like that. I know this is going to be met with a lot of sceptiscism, but that's what it seemed like. Odds are there is a scientific explanation to all this, but it is fun to think that we can leave our bodies and fly about to wherever we like. Anybody have any thoughts …

What kind of slip in physics could allow someone to breath under water? Could this be possible for a second? Please be open minded because believe it or not this happened to a freind of mine.

This may be a little long but it makes so much sense to me, I just want someone else's thoughts on the matter. Thanks. So what do you think of the idea that Gravity is a form of energy, perhaps a high energy form of electromagnetic radiation (higher in frequency than the gamma rays we have been able to detect so far) This radiation (gravity) is felt as a PUSH, not a pull. We (and any other object near enough to a large mass) would feel it as a pull because mass absorbs some of this energy. so we are being pushed in all directions equally except FROM the direction of a nearby large mass. Therefore we would be pushed more toward the Earth (for example) than away.…

ORIGINALY BY NOVOJOEVERCLEAR :: "" Today my biology teacher said that psychic connections can be explained by one brain picking up on the electrical and magnetic fields of another (hence seeing their thoughts). It occurs naturally with people you know well, such as husband and wife, family, close friends, that you will say something you are thinking and that person will say they were just thinking the exact thing. I have had this happen to me before, and the line of thought shared is often not an invevitable addititon on communication currently taking place. This makes sense to me, but i was not aware that the electrical fields of the brain were powerful enough to…

The mechanism of falling object is always an interested topic. Almost all physicists think that gravitational force acts on object and makes it have weight and free fall. Here a very simple experiment negates the above parlance. Galileo demonstrates that different mass bodies increased their speed at the same rate (Stephen [1]). Galileo phenomenon implies that there may be two different mechanisms that govern it. One is the equality of gravitational and inertial mass based on facts that object has weight (Einstein [2]). Another is that falling object is not governed by gravity. Under this condition, falling object must be weightless and stay on how it is left in falli…

Hi... My name is Prashant Sawant, residing at Mumbai(bombay) India. From my childhood i dont belive in god. I think that god does not exist. But now many people are telling me about god, so i am getting confused. I started thinging about it and i found two theories about god and world. These are -- 1. If god does exist then it may be possible that the world is also a "Virtual Reality" created by god. God is a basic intellegence who have designed the world. We know about a VR as seen in movies. So this world what we know is a "Controlled Self Hypnotism" kind of thing for a god. He is doing this to get a pleasure, enjoyment, fun. A dream like Fantasization.…

Anyone attempting to argue the Special Theory of Relativity needs to understand the basics of how light travels, and how we perceive it. Einstein wrote that the speed of light does not depend on the speed of the object emitting the light. To prove this, Einstein referred to De Sitter’s observation of the binary stars, which are two stars that are orbiting each other. De Sitter concluded that if the speed of light were dependant on the speed of the star, then the light emitted from the star as it is traveling towards us would eventually catch up to the light that was emitted from the same star when it was traveling away from us. That logic is incorrect since…

http://www.reversespeech.com/ Any of you ever seen this? Sounds hokey to me.

This is the thread for the debate mentioned here. If you wish to comment about this thread, go to the link above and comment there. Any comments here not from the competitors will be deleted, mods willing. CONTESTANTS: On the side that aliens did make the pyramids: yourdadonapogos shrodngrs_cat atinymonkey They did NOT make the pyramids: neo007 pullkit LucidDreamer On the fence is YT2095, who will be the voice of reason. First up is yourdadonapogos' side. Any one of the three may start. GO! (once he starts, you may go in any order until it is decided [in the comments thread] that it should be over)

What is exactly philosophy? How would one write philosophical manuscripts?

Quite simply, I think people who believe in UFO's and the "little green men" are crazy. A) Traveling the speed of light is impossible. How could they reach Earth then? B) There's been so many "sightings", why the heck would aliens keep coming back? C) People who are "abducted" could very easily have experienced different things. The majority of UFO's are actually planes, satellites, stars, or other such things. It's far more likely that those unexplainable events ARE government projects than aliens.

I recently got a book called "Thinking Physics" which is a book demonstrating physics with cartoony examples and such (it's fun). However I noted a few problems, and I'm not sure if I'm right or not. The first one, on which I know I am right, is that he claims that energy has mass. This is demonstrated by the following example: You have a box strong enough to withstand a nuclear explosion and keep all the energy inside of it (not likely, but say you have it). You detonate a nuclear bomb inside it. Then you weigh it. According to physics, some of the mass will have simply vanished and turned to energy (remember e=mc2?). But he says that it will still weigh the same, …

As much as i want to explain what ZPE is, its not easy.... but i can give you a link to were you can sit back and read. I would be just curious about your opinion about this topic! Thanks http://www.zpower.net/zpe.htm There is a ton more to read, but you just have to look around. If you ever are more interested in the sub. There is a book called "the hunt for zero point " by nick cook thanks again

Please read this theory and please give me feedback. Please read all of this theory. My Theories on Death facing most likely facts there is no heaven, when you just die, end up a nothingness. But how can you be nothingness? Your consciousess has to go somewhere. When you go to sleep you lose time and wake up. What happened to your conciousness then? It doesnt matter because you regained it. But what is it like when you dont regain it? You cant be aware of what happens, How is it possible to not exist? The single fact that could prove my theory false is whether the human consciousness, or memories exist in the brain itself or in the brainwave impulses. If it existed i…

Proof of the soul? What a load of Bull.

I was just wondering what you guys consider pseudo-science. Social sciences such as Sociology and Economics, or just the more off the wall stuff like Astrology, UFO Cults, etc

Stonehenge SUMMER SOLSTICE 2004 Following are some names of the many Stonehenge investigators who failed to published the presence of Carboniferous White Limestone, Carboniferous Pale Grit and Carboniferous Black Coal at the Stonehenge monument. The geologic outcrop at Stonehenge is Cretaceous White Chalk, just in case you forgot. Reason for their failure? None of these Stonehenge investigators knew about them. So the point is, why not go see for yourself what they missed, at the Stonehenge SUMMER SOLSTICE 2004 (now that you know their exact locations, and rough amounts) http://www.bentley-kemp.com/Weston/stonehenge/images/stnhng%20pansheep_jpg.jpg Aiding in t…

This thread is only meant to ask everyone here about the subject itself, and what's currently known about it. I've put it in the pseudoscience section for obvious reasons... Though it sounds a bit lame, I was just involved in a half hour or so argument with my mother about this subject, starting out when she suggested that I try writing a short story (which I like doing) in which the main character is a virus or bacterium. I didn't mean for it to last that long, and it's particularly annoying as I missed taping Invader Zim because of it. Basically it qiuckly turned into a debate about whether plants are conscious or not in the end (or middle, somewhere anyway). Durin…

"Matter-Master-Mind" YES.....God exist but NOT in the human form as the various RELIGIONs believe . Rather God is the "Matter-Master-Mind" of the Universe that programmed the "Mechanism of Evolution" rolling fundamentally; at an "Independent Rate" :and Man(Homo sapiens) is (or amongst) the master-pieces of this Evolutionary Mechanism Trend. If you view the Universe or Existence as a CIRCLE then either 'God would represent the Centre and Man(the master-piece) the Circumference' or vice versa.And the other Living and Non-living things occupying the rest. This programming is just as you programme your computer to understand or do your commands!! WHA…
