Phi for All

! Moderator Note Making things up isn't how science is done. Perhaps you need to start a blog somewhere. Everyone here is interested in discussing mainstream science.

! Moderator Note This isn't mainstream physics, so I'm moving it to Speculations, but it's got some problems you need to fix before it can be seriously discussed here. "Continuum" is actually defined by its wholeness, and the fact that it isn't divisible. Also, energy is a property of things, not a thing itself, so the universe can't be "made of light energy". Also also, using the non-scientific term "founding fathers" wrt the geometry of space is just confusing, so you may want to study some terminology instead of making it up.

! Moderator Note This is a mainstream science section. Please keep your pet ideas out of it. If you can support any of this, start your own thread in Speculations, please.

Love it. The two stories I'm thinking about most right now? That Russian tank that swerved to crush that civilian vehicle, and how the tough old man survived while his fellow Ukrainians helped free him from the crushed wreckage. I'm juxtaposing that with a story I heard about what the Ukrainians are doing to Russian soldiers they've captured. They're encouraging them to phone their families and friends back in Russia. "Let them know that you're safe and unharmed, because your loved ones must all be freaking out that you were fighting and now you're captured, right?" These are the kinds of things Putin can't stand up to. Right isn't always in might's corner.

He's also anthropomorphizing the universe, and we all know how much she hates that!

At T=1 second, neutrinos were decoupling to form the cosmic neutrino background, so we're past the "one tiny particle" state. Are you kidding? There was no Earth at the time, nor was there EVER an Earth where human bodies existed in a degenerate state of matter. You should study science instead of trying to make it up on your own.

Stop right here and support this sentence with actual evidence. This is the part you're assuming, the part that makes your reasoning circular.

! Moderator Note You need to focus on ideas you can support with evidence. Try to avoid lumping everyone in a profession together (all archeologists?! all geologists?!). Study some mainstream science (the early universe was tiny, and too tiny for stars and planets, and the matter that eventually became China was NOT scaled to fit). In other words, humans have accumulated a great deal of knowledge so you could study it, instead of making stuff up from square one.

! Moderator Note This is NOT logic, and doesn't meet the requirements for a science discussion here. You assume too much, and build on such fragile foundations. This is a science discussion forum.

You're using a circular argument that begs the question of whether reincarnation exists. The argument assumes too much.

If you could first establish support for this idea that there is some kind of "artificial electricity that pervades the atmosphere", it might help others understand what you mean. What is "artificial electricity"? What things have this property? You get 5 posts on your first day, as a way to protect us from spammers, so tomorrow you can perhaps support your ideas a bit better? That would be great, thanks.

! Moderator Note Moved from Politics to Speculations.

! Moderator Note We don't need ideas from maniacs. We need supportive evidence, something more than your opinion, before we can discuss your ideas. Wishful thinking is NOT interesting enough for discussion, since anyone can make up anything they want, the way you're doing. We need ideas that are testable, that use reason and methodology to help us arrive at a hypothesis we can actually support.

! Moderator Note This is the Religion section of a science discussion forum. What you need is any kind of evidence to support this idea. Since it's describing an extraordinary claim, you'll need an extraordinary amount of evidence for it, especially since the null hypothesis is "the story of Jesus is fiction". Just making claims without support is hand-waiving, and it's not interesting enough to discuss. Do you have more support for this idea?

I don't understand what this means. If what was true? Why do you think zapatos was laughing when he asked you if you feel better? Either way? Which two ways were you talking about? I couldn't follow what you were talking about in that post. And the rant before that was very long and covered MANY points. When you're trying to make a point, it's best to come to it quickly, and focus on one at a time.

As a guess, I'd say it's because the scientists are smart. Evolution's changes are in large part responses to changing environments. They probably figure that how we look isn't as important as how well-equipped we are to handle the world around us. Besides, if we evolve features that would look hideous to us now, I can guarantee that by then they'll be considered gorgeous, with just as much certainty as the artists in your links.

! Moderator Note If the rest of us are going to benefit from your perspective on this matter, you need to understand that posting barbarous responses to barbarous actions doesn't inspire meaningful discussion, and comments like this break many rules. If I suspend you for this, how can we learn from your perspective? Please feel free to post reasonable comments, but no more of this, Sensei.

Buai has been suspended for 3 days for uncivil behavior. We attack ideas here, not people.

Central Colorado, USA. I just looked up the current restrictions, and it looks like they've had to change their tune and allow folks to retain up to 110 gallons of rainwater in no more than two barrels for gardening only. The new laws went into effect last August. This state has a history of claiming water rights over neighbors who obtained statehood after we did, and that's led to some bizarre water laws.

Providing a seat for sitting for x hours has somewhat reasonable expectations. Just give us some hydration, snacks, reading material, video entertainment, window view, minimal privacy, access to the loo, and the vast majority of us are good. Providing a bed for sleeping for x hours is going to open the airlines up to much heavier expectations. We need plug-ins for medical devices like CPAP and more privacy, to start. I can only imagine what a large population is going to require from the airlines in order to fall asleep on the plane. Also, this design still has to allow for evacuation per FAA guidelines. It might be tough clearing the whole plane quickly enough if folks start out lying down.

Laws like that may be tied to commerce. Iirc, in the US we can grow veg for our personal consumption on just about any property we own. Trying to sell it to others is a whole different kettle of corn.

I think that's still too much of a leap. If it was a sudden death, how did the brain know "it will not recover"? I think it's much more likely that the brain was trying to determine what was happening wrt an event it's never experienced before. Scanning the past to see if there's a familiar pattern that can explain this new phenomenon. Death could feel so different that "life flashes before your eyes" in an effort to categorize it.
