Eclipses visible on the eastern horizon just before sunrise will be on the opposite side of the Sun. Similarly, eclipses visible on the western horizon after sunset will be on the opposite side of the Sun.

No.

I really like the title of this post.😄

Most people get cancer after their children are old enough to take care of themselves so there is no evolutionary pressure to eliminate cancer.

Huh?

I am definately out of my depth here

That's fine.  I am out of my depth in many of the discussions on this site.  The fact that you realize that is really a good thing, it will motivate you to learn more.  If you ask questions the members here will fall all over themselves to help you understand.  Good luck on your journey of learning.

Am I misinterpretting the word speculation here?

Yes.  Read the rules for the speculation section of this forum.

whats a wag?

Wild ass guess.

I've written a 20 chapter book

Yikes!  I think learning a little physics would be much more rewarding than writing 20 chapters of WAGs.

I certainly could be wrong, but this seems to be the product of a random word generator.

So what is the real story?

Often violence committed by God is a point of criticism of religion (generally in relation to the Abrahamic religions), however violence committed by nature (e.x. earthquakes) doesn't tend to draw the same criticism of nature.

There is no right and wrong in nature or the universe in general.  Right and wrong are made up concepts developed by people.  To be clear it is a made up concept that has served mankind very well.  The concept of right and wrong allows us to live our lives happily and minimize violence.  If a star near us happened to go super nova and there happened to be a polar jet from that star that was pointed towards us and eradicated all life on earth, it would be neither good nor evil, it would just be what happened.  I, personally, really embrace the saying "shit happens".

and votes were accurately represented at the ballot counting.  Nostalgic, almost.

But they are accurately counted, every analysis has supported that.  Sure there are some gullible people who say the election was 'stolen', but the evidence says otherwise.

Yes, that is why I need someone like you to help me, guide me, and hold my hand.

You can't learn physics on a forum.  Take some physics classes on line or at a community college, you might find them enjoyable.

I committed to a search on consciousness-cognition in non living matter. I did so and have not found very much evidence that would support this contention.

You haven't found much support?  Golly, what a shocking outcome.

Because only an unconscious person could come up with particles being conscious?

I guess stupid or insane could also apply.

I too am sceptical of atoms being conscious

That's good, since if you thought atoms were conscious I would question if you were conscious.

This is interesting; it's a step by step guide to triangulating the Moon, and the  source might help to convince some people.

These people are either insane or morons, no amount of actual evidence will ever convince them.  It's a complete waste of time to try IMO.

Evidence for the existence of an Intelligent Designer aka Jehovah God is revealed in the creations around us and our fine-tuned universe

It seems to me that our 'fine-tuned universe' is actually not conducive to life at all.  So much so that there is only a thin shell around a single planet where life has managed to hold on as far as we know.  There are over 5000 exoplanets that have been discovered and the overwhelming majority of them could not harbor life and most probably none of them contain life.  Life on earth appears to be a lucky fluke.

I think the simplest experiment would be for the astronauts on the ISS to take a picture of the earth.

The flat earthers beliefs are not based on logic or facts so trying to use logic or facts to convince them is a waste of time.

I'm 8 years old and happy to be on this forum to learn.

I think your interest and level of understanding of science is exceptional for a person of your age.

It seems like your idea of a black hole star is to explain the formation of the super massive black holes (SMBH) found in the center of most (if not all) galaxies.  It seems more likely that the SMBH formed from a combination of merging stellar black holes and the huge amount of dust and gas at the center of the forming galaxies.

I hope you continue to enjoy learning about science, it is a never ending and exciting  journey.

Black Hole Stars were formed by Dark Matter Halo, which creates very massive stars that are million times the mass of the sun.

There are no stars that are a million times as massive as the sun.  Dark matter does not create stars.  AFAIK there is no astronomical term 'black hole star', so you need to define this term if it is something you made up.

A massive explosion happens but the star is so big that it resists even a supernova!

The 'explosion' is the supernova.

The Black Hole is a few tens of kilometers inside a star, which is the size of the solar system.

Black holes are never inside of a star.

Contact a doctor and tell him your symptoms.  Good luck.

If the speed of light does not change relative to a moving object, how does a light clock work?

The whole point of the light clock is that the speed of light doesn't change.

You don't seem to have much of an understanding of relativity.  You should listen to the people on this forum, you will learn a lot.
