  IDIOTS Welcome

  by Satanus in

  the internet is a great tool for learning.

  it's also a place where even idiots can get a hearing, attention which they often crave, and often, if their ideas are wacky enough but strongly and coherently presented, they often get followings.

  take, david icke for example.. idiots, who wouldn't get as much as a sniff from those who know them, can get all the attention that they want on the net.

  DO YOU THINK THERE'S A CURE FOR CANCER?

  by Mary in

  2. medical

  do you think the scientists, doctors and pharmeceutical companies know of a cure for cancer that they're not telling us?

  when you consider the leaps and bounds in medical discoveries that we've made in the last 50 years, it seems incredible that they're still using chemotherapy and radiation as the treatment for cancer.. while i was one of the lucky one who has survived cancer (so far), it's always in the back of my mind that it could return.

  we all have friends who died before their time because of this rotten disease, yet the only progress that seems to have been made is that they can now 'detect' it earlier, which of course gives you a much greater chance of survival.. there have been stories of people who have been cured through alternative medicine, yet no one in the medical field seems to be interested in anything other than chemo or radiation.

  Nope no cure

  They could not resist the huge amount of money they would rake in by releasing it if they had

  What Maintains the Universe?

  does it ever seem weird that evolutionists and creationists endlessly debate about events vastly distant in the past - without discussing what.

  maintains the universe now?

  clearly, electrons and protons have a certain mass, light has a particular speed and so on - why should any of.

  This thread reminds me of an Eddie Izzard dvd I was watching last night.............

  "Ok now remember to stand well back when the universe is lit"

  "What"

  "well how big??" "oh really" *steps back a bit more*

  I think the popular understanding of the "big bang" as absolute beginning is no less deceptive than the old metaphysical notion of eternity which it opposes and/or replaces in many contemporary minds

  I don't have a problem with the big bang being the absolute beginning

  Time was created in the exact moment the big bang occured, there is no "before the big bang", this is a hard concept to grasp

  To say that the universe is running down seems a little one sided to me. Is light slowing down? Much of the universe is accelerating. Also, almost infinite numbers of areas are increasing in complexity/order, which i think is an increase in entropy. Perhaps some of the universe will be lost into nothing, while other parts of it will be 'salvaged'. Not bad.

  Erm nope this is wrong

  The universe is not accelerating per se, the universe is "expanding" at a rate which is larger than the gravitational force is pulling it back together, this does not mean that the galaxies are literally travelling away from each other, the space between the galaxies is expanding which gives the illusion that the galaxies are rushing from each other. The effect of this is that far in the future the only object visible in the sky will be the milky way which will likely merge with Andromeda, overtime the stars will die naturally or be consumed by blackholes until nothing is left but a void

  Before it does so, lots of interesting things can happen but ultimately it's going to be cold and dark and motionless.

  That is the likely outcome based on the information we currently have but it is not established fact yet, current estimates put matter at 5% of the universe, 35% dark matter and 60% dark energy which would lead to a continually expanding and dying universe but these sort of discoveries have the habit of being trumped with yet more information which gives a different answer. I reckon 10 years will give a more definative answer

  good in jehovah's witnesses

  2. friends

  i thought it might be nice to see some positive things mentioned about jw's.

  now, i know mentioning these things may be hard given the experiences here, but i've yet to find a group of people who don't have something positive about them.

  if there weren't something positive, no one would ever join.
