Even things we think are of no use are in fact useful.
Random, difficult math, when we learn it, forms new neuronal pathways in our brain. Those problem solving pathways may prove useful when problem solving other issues, be it managing people, looking for a pattern in a faulty piece of equipment...etc etc.
Our brains absorb and restructure based on what it experiences. By forcing our brains to do math or geography or physics or language etc etc we are making neural connections that have many, many usefull traits. It isn't just about the facts and skills we learn when doing these things, we are literally rewiring our brains when we do so.

Wasn't talking to you prologos...
But if you are keen to catch the ball, the reference to being lazy is attached to the most basic concepts of science and energy. A trip to the library or 5mins on the amazon book section would result in resources that would allow you to see why these comments are unscientific and inaccurate.
Lazy because we have spoken about these things for years now and yet the same people clearly haven't even read the first chapters of a basic science book. To me, for someone that wants to take their spiritual beliefs into the science realm, the very least to do is read a science book....
Disagree?
Without doing so, how do you even use the words 'science' or 'energy'? It is first important to realise what these words mean.
I am tired of seeing the same peolple argue science and complex physics without the most basic understanding of these highly complex areas. I know my limitations in these area and I know I know nothing.
As for the definition of 'nothing', they are following the evidence, not intuition, not what feels right to us, not what is logical etc etc. Our understanding of the word nothing has no connection whatsoever to do with the reality of what nothing may represent, if we are calling the pre-big bang conditions 'nothing'.
Let's be honest, we can't even define 'nothing'. We can't even give an example of nothing. It is an arbitrary concept ast best, as we in our ignorance think of it, but....it may be totally irrational as a concept in the first place.
How is it possible for nothingness to exist? It is just as unintuitive as assuming there is no such thing as nothing. So rather than use gut feelings, let's wait for the data and evidnece. Krauss does it for a day job, we don't.
I don't want to talk god with you prologos, but for me, simply saying god came from nothing, is infinite and had no beginning.... is neither helpful, evidence based or interesting. I am not assuming you assume this, but from your past comments it may be the case. Anyway, I see no reason why your god is attached to the concept of nothingness, cosmology or the big bang. There is certainly no evidence for a god so far.
Krauss is working with math and evidence, for me, that is where my interest lies.

This is a CASTING CALL . . . for a scene in my book
by Terry inattention!.
i'm in my final re-write of the monorails of mars novel.. as you may know, the book is a sci-fi allegory concerning mind control by the watch tower.. .
i have a scene in nikola tesla's laboratory in which he is about to attempt an exchange between mars and earth.. the volunteers--instead of actually traveling physically from one planet to the other will instead swap minds.. need i say--it will go wrong?!.

if you REALLY wanted to know, you wouldn't ask a religious internet forum, you would buy a physics book.

Science CAN ONLY work with the observable, so science has nothing to say about your god.
Please take some of the advice you have been repeatedly given in the last week and go buy a book on science.
Don't be so lazy.

Not as important as the skill to critically appraise the knowledge you are being educated with.
Learn to critically apraise information first, after all, Watchtower had knowledge on offer and an education.

They are 100% attempting to alter their image of being anti-education, but only so far as to have a few examples to point to when critisised, such as a few healf hearted articles and a video such as this. For the non JW complainer or enquirer, there is enough to dismiss the issue by having such examples, all the while allowing the rank and file know nothing REALLY has changed.
