Q: How can a fridge magnet cling against gravity

endlessly without draining a power source?

 

A: It can't ... fridge magnets are impossible according to

today's science. As we all know, it takes tremendous energy

to cling to the side of a cliff, supporting our own weight against

gravity, and before long we would tire and fall. Yet a fridge

magnet is not glued to the fridge -- it is held by magnetic

energy. And, as both our science and our common sense tell

us, such an expenditure of energy requires that a power source

be drawn upon to support this effort. Yet, a permanent magnet

not only maintains its strength indefinitely (no theory or text-

book shows the power drain characteristics of a permanent

magnet as it holds itself or other objects against gravity), but

there isn't even a power source in sight! Endless magnetic

energy apparently emanates from permanent magnets without

any explanation in our science. The only explanation that any

physicist will give for this mystery is that there is no mystery at

all since the magnet isn't moving, which gives a zero result if

you plug this into the Work Function. No physicist will discuss

this matter further.

 

this is from "The Final Theory" link up top.

 

what are your opinions on this matter? is this another attempt at a creationist to convince us of his views with relatively uneducated statements that would sound convincing to someone unfamiliar with the specifics, or am i being too critical?

So a kitchen magnet proves a god exists?
An orderly god would never approve of my refrigerator.

 

Since heating magnetite makes it lose its strength, does that mean the devil in hell is more powerful than God?

 

I think the "no physicist will discuss this matter further" part is like a glove to the cheek, don't you? And did you notice all of his referrals are from either publishers or people with no credentials? This is my favorite:

 

"Most fascinating non-fiction book I've ever read!" …

"A simple, elegant explanation that at first seems

impossible, but on further examination one finds that it's

not that easy to refute." -- Steve Hanson, Mankato, MN, U.S.A

Oh, they will. But nobody voluntarily asks, and if they do start explaining it the brian has a trip switch to auto shut down until the mouth stops moving. It's an automatic reflex to prevent the brain from bordom overload.

This made me laugh:

 

Q: Why is Einstein's Special Relativity Theory so

bizarre? Is our universe really that strange?

 

A: Einstein's Special Relativity Theory is all a mistake.

 

Obviously there's more than that but it's all very silly. I thought I might buy the book just to laugh at it, but then I realised I'd actually be giving money to this guy.

 

btw, the page is at http://www.thefinaltheory.com/ for those of you that want a good laugh.
