Not so sure that seeds in plants are generally oval. But most others can be easily explained. For example, eggs need to get out of the body. What shape would you suggest for this process to go smooth?

I don't think so. I don't think our ancestors couldn't use pebbles, sticks etc. for calculations.

Regardless of the topic, 10^5 (10 raised to the power of 5) is 100,000 rather than 10,000.

@exchemist I didn't see it but by the mod note above I guess I've selected and quoted the Bible statement in your post instead of the original one, and the system showed it as if it was your quote. If this was the case, my apology.

One can get many inconsistencies if one mixes freely these two different models. To be consistent, one should not generally do it, although it works sometimes if applied very carefully and in a restricted domain. In particular, if you use Newtonian perspective, then there is no speed limit. And if use GR, then the galaxies do not move faster than light. Each picture is consistent within itself.

No, it is not. A Newtonian perspective would need to find an energy source causing the observed acceleration of galaxies. You said above that there is no mass, but this is not so. Galaxies have mass. You've also said above that the universe expansion is "space stretching", but it is not so from a Newtonian perspective. It is so from the GR perspective.

But we already have a correction to Newtonian perspective. It is GR. Newtonian perspective doesn't work in this domain.

We don't need Bible for that. There are computer programs, not very complicated, and "when calculated correctly, they play the entire sequence of the Pi number".

I think the moderators already have one, e.g.,

Why? Is there a problem?

One does not need a high IQ to realize that this is a wrong forum for this question. Brain Teasers and Puzzles:

QM is not mathematics. How a theory of mathematics can be applied to anything which is not mathematics?

n is proportional to q. This means that making q twice as big makes n twice as big. n is proportional to r. This means that making r 3 times as big makes n 3 times as big. Now, what happens to n if q is made twice as big and r is made 3 times as big? n should become 6 times as big. I.e., n is proportional to q*r. For example, in my last derivation on step 1, F(r) is some function of r. It depends on r, but it does not depend on q, i.e., it is independent of q. "F depends on r" means that if r varies, F might vary. "F does not depend on q, i.e., it is independent of q" means that varying q alone does not have any effect on F.

1. Given n=F(r)*q 2. Given n=G(q)*r 3. From 1 and 2, F(r)*q=G(q)*r 4. From 3, G(q)/q=F(r)/r 5. To hold for all q and r the two sides of the equation in 4 have to be constant. Let's call it, c 6. From 4 and 5, G(q)=c*q 7. From 2 and 6, n=c*q*r QED If any line is unclear, let me know.

I think that there is something out there which we perceive as the object. Just like we perceive these patterns of light on the screen as words written in English.

Sorry, but I fail to see how time and space come into counting of apples.

AFAIK, expansion of the universe is a GR effect, and it cannot be consistently described in term of Newtonian mechanics. Specifically, there is no Newtonian 'F' in GR formulation. Einstein field equations, EFE, relate geometry of spacetime (LHS of the equations) with distribution of energy-momentum in the spacetime (RHS). To get an accelerated expansion in these equations, you need either an extra term on the LHS or an extra term on the RHS. The former leads to inclusion of a "cosmological constant" in the EFE. The latter leads to inclusion of a peculiar energy source in the universe, the "dark energy."

Amen.

If not this, there would be something else. Belorussia, Kosovo, Serbia, Basks, who knows. You know that babies exhibit a feel of 'fairness' very early in life. They get upset when they perceive something as being 'unfair.' This emotion alone is enough to perpetuate wars.

I don't believe it because I don't see evidence for it, rather a wish.

However, Russians, Ukrainians, British, Irish, Arabs, Israelis, Armenians, Azeris, etc. are all well fed and sheltered, and they are/ were in wars anyway. There are other reasons.

I haven't realized it at first, but it really does. How does that Chekhov's quote look in English?

They are Deepak Chopra's disciple. E.g.,

Computer is a concept which we (you, me, some other people) use to organize our perceptions of the world. A member of lost Amazonian tribe while finding a computer in the forest would perhaps perceive three blocks rather than one anything, i.e. a big block (monitor), a medium size block (keyboard), and a small block (mouse). And she will be right. Same here. Same about waves.

They are running out of material. The above is a verbatim copy of the below:
