  Suzi Mayhem Outdoes John Cleese

  by AlanF in

  a critique of suzi mayhem's theory of god .

  i thought, when suzi first posted this, that it was a joke something like john cleese's classic "brontosaurus theory" skit in a monty python episode.

  but mr. "dark clouds" has sort of asked me to critique it as if it were a serious theory, so here goes.. i'll address this to suzi, but suzi dear, don't take this too seriously.

  AlanF:

  So when you say that "Einstein's equation does not preclude an object traveling FASTER than the speed of light", you're quite right, because it has nothing to do with velocity at all.

  quite right, it deals with momentum actually. Usually, it is convient to square both sides of the equation. I'm not cutting and pasting the whole damn thing into here and then trying to reformat it. Do a Goggle search.

  Do you have any idea what an imaginary distance is? Or an imaginary time? Of course not, and neither does anyone else.

  Well, first off their NOT imaginary numbers, oh enlightened one. They would be complex numbers (with real and imaginary parts). You know just like the intelligence of this conversation has real (my part) and imaginary parts (what you say).

  A brief quote from Stephen Hawking taken from A Brief History of Time (don't have the phyiscal copy in front of me, found the txt OCR'd on the Internet, so no page number. look it up yourself if you think I'm making this up):

  "one must use imaginary time... That is to say, for the purposes of calculation, one must measure
  time using imaginary numbers, rather than real ones. This has an interesting effect on spacetime:
  The distinction between time and space disappears completely... we may regard our use of Euclidean spacetime as merely a mathematical device (or trick) to calculate answers about real spacetime."

  gee, AlanF, I guess the Lucasian (sp?) professor at Cambridge (a position once held by Issac Newton himself) is a regular nobody. You need imaginary time for singularities to exist. And you need singularities for black holes to exist, (which as far as we can tell they do since they have been observed in nature).

  Now, what do the imaginary parts of the complex roots exactly mean? As far as we can tell NOW, they have no accepted physical meaning. (just several discredited ones including stuff like negative mass) But, that doesn't mean they never will.

  Inductors and capacitors have a complex impedance. Remember a complex number has real and imaginary part. Resistance is only the real part of impedance. The imaginary part of the impedance is call the reactance. (I had a dash of EE in school too.)

  Just curious AlanF, where oh where did you get your PhD in physics. You sound like you'd have trouble handling the intro physics class at your local community college, brightboy. And man that Stevie Hawking is just some crackpot fundie at Cambridge I guess with his imaginary time. btw, last I heard he was a devout atheist.

  well, it's safe to say you have no idea what you are talking about and I await your Farkel-like response of picking out all my typos and grammatical hiccups b/c you know everything else I say is abso-freaking-lutely correct.

  you better give up physics and go back to washing the windows. Oh, and please keep whining to Simon to get me banned after I showed you up earlier. Real manly of you I must say.

  Hey larc MD, resident jackass,

  Specialization of labor came about because of the agricultural revolution. The pain in Randy's ass is caused by the fag-ricultural revolution and has nothing to do with Crone's disease.

  Hey larc I bet you know a lot more than me about the fag-ricultural revolution. I am ignorant of that and proud of it.

  According to you idiotic reasoning, EVERYONE who sells books for a profit is a scumbag.

  Oh, resident genius and exaulted one Farkel, read a little closer. I said WT books. Anyone who sells religious books is a SCUMBAG because they are taking advantage of human weaknesses to make a quick buck. I respect you b/c you put your writings on the Net for all to read and don't try to make a fast buck at it.

  Randy suffers from a disease that makes him incapable of getting and keeping a "real" job.

  Dr. Farkel MD could you please tell me since when laziness has been considered a disability? As Proverbs says, "Lazy one, go to the ant, yada yada."

  AlanF (resident genius),

  Einstein's equation does not preclude an object traveling FASTER than the speed of light. It says that an object may not cross the boundary of the speed of light. An object travelling slower than the speed of light cannot go faster than light speed by the equation. But, if an object traveling faster than light speed from it's creation, it would always be traveling faster than light speed by the same equation. (kind of the universal equivalent of the bus in the movie Speed.)

  Look at the ACTUAL equation, not the simplified "for dummies" version. gee I thought you were a smart guy, but really you're just a smart ASS.

  Farkel:

  Why should SIT answer to you? Is there any thing he could say to make you think Randy is not a book peddler, who would rather peddle books than get a real job?

  Probably not. Your "logic" is as subjective as the WT's and you would twist anything he said (by quoting out of context, focusing on typographical errors, etc.) without directly addressing his point. And you think your such a bright guy.

  Two points from which we can infur the third:

  1) The WT sells WT books for a profit.
  2) Randy sells WT books for a profit. (he even admits that he does)

  3) therefore, Randy is no better than the WT.

  Why doesn't the scumbag get a REAL job?

  From page 13:
  We get advise on how to avoid paying "Caesar's things to Caesar". In their example, the government gets bilked out of 80% of the taxes due. Brooklyn got theirs though, so Jehovah must approve.
  (read the example, I'm too lazy to type it all in)

  TOTAL VALUE OF THE ADVISE TO THE FAMILY: 28-39% of the $400,000 savings or $100,000-150,000. (assuming it counts only as income and is not taxed at inheritance rates or then the savings soar!)

  From page 14:
  More advise on how to swindle Caesar out of his due. Small potatoes next to the last one. (only $1000 per year) But, you have to ask yourself: If Jesus were alive, would he do this? A man who said: "Pay Caesar's things to Caesar."

  From page 17:
  

  Stephan, aged 72, owns stock worth $265,000

  Wow, I wonder how many windows old Stevie had to wash to get a stash like that! In this example, Stevie swindles ol' Caesar out of 40% of the capital gains tax due, or about $20,000 for this example.

  Boy, I wonder how the Society feels about the repeal of the inheritance tax. It MUST be a tool of Satan, right up there with prohibition.

  Gee, I wonder how applicable this is to many of the window-washing masses who followed Brooklyn's advise to forgo college. I think the only reason they let the kids go to school now is they realized a kid with a degree can donate more.

  I doubt this will be offer of the month anytime soon! but, you never know...

  File lawsuit or not?

  when i moved my family after leaving the jehoagies schmitnesses, i changed my phone number, and made sure it was unlisted.

  little did i know that i would soon be receiving a call out of the blue from a jw.. now, this was a woman that i had worked with at one time and we were pretty good friends, so a few years later, when she called, i was kind of glad to hear from her.

  the problem was, how did she get my phone number.

  I was wondering about how to prove how she got my phone number.

  the company usually tracks which employees access an individual's records. for cases like this. if you call the company and threaten to sue, they probably will fire her ass rather than risk the lawsuit. If she does data entry, she's not worth the hassle.

  "it is not to be presumed that the prince of darkness will suffer the binding influences of the new prince, which are now at work to fetter his power without a struggle.

  his rage will spend its force in distressing mankind in various ways, for he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

  " 1884wtwr 03 01 07. well, that is as it may be, but we can now say without a doubt that this "short time" which the watchtower taught back in 1884 was nearly over is still 117 years later - taught by the watchtower to be in progress... "all know something of the failure of brother miller's expectations.

  Without a doubt I would be impressed if you could come up with a quote about the generation alive in 1914 without a doubt passing before the end came.

  wow! brings back the memories! thanks!

  I was only a kid (5 or 6 yrs old), but I remember in the early 80's going out in field service during the convention. And I see it was on the program! (usually the first day)

  Does anyone here remember that part of the program and how it worked? How was it arranaged? It must have been a logistical nightmare! thanks.

  Electromagnetic Pulse Weaponry

  just a friendly reminder, that on any given day, merely one large mega-ton nuclear device exploded high in the atmosphere over the united states, could fry virtually every "unhardened" electrical device in the entire nation.

  numerous prophecies speak about the fall of the oddly yoked anglo-american dyad.

  the only thing at this point that remains unclear is exactly when the downfall will occur and how it will come about.

  YK:

  Just a friendly reminder, that in about 5 billion years one large sun exploding at the center of our solar system could fry every electrical device (and all people) in the entire world. Numerous prophecies speak about the fall of the oddly yoked Anglo-American dyad. The only thing at this point that remains unclear is exactly when the downfall will occur.

  The Watchtower even commented on the sun exploding several times, along with the significance of the generation that saw the events of the year 5,000,000,014 not passing away. Of course, we can be comforted by the fact that "Jehovah will by now means delay." It might be mere speculation, but the year 4,000,000,014 might have significance too, based on whether Jerusalem fell in 587 or 607 BCE.

  Your not believing in the sun running out of hydrogen is like not believing in gravity. And of course, if that's Jehovah's will, then it is inevitable.
