• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hubble Constant (Ho) fixed to light speed, C and calculated as 71 k/s/Mpc. God did it!!

So what is "The deep"? It's the Aether. God did it !!
I believe in the Babylonian/Jewish cosmology it is the oceans that surround the land on all sides but above. Those waters have been separated upward by the firmament to make the land. It's all right there on the first page of your BIble.

Off-topic and pointless to the conversation already at hand.
So why put that "I stand with Ukraine" rubbish on every one of your posts? Looks like off topic political scamming. Please remove that and stay on the Ho and Creation topic.

But I'm not adding it to every post. It's part of my signature, which is something anyone can choose to add or not to add through their userpage.

I mean... I know you're new here, but come on, that's quite silly to not know that.

It's a signature, I presume. I don't view them. Follow the instructions at the bottom of every post I make and you won't see anyone's "signature" ever again. (Just for emphasis and not my signature -- Slava Ukraine!)

Genesis answers your two questions. "The deep" is the Aether, that provides the framewoork of the universe.
Do I need to remind you Aether was attributed to Maxwell according to your version of events.
You can't even stick to the same story.

It's political scamming and certainly not your propper signature. It may offend other posters as political off topic nonsense.

Don't care. If you don't want to see it, follow the instructions that Hans Blaster showed in his reply to your comment which is, frankly, an insipid and transparent attempt to draw attention away from the fact that this equation of yours is a load of garbage.

I find your description of Active Member highly offensive, no one is interested in what you do behind closed doors.
Get rid of it.

Let's get back on topic. The Vera Rubin telescope will be publishing their own measured values of Ho quite soon. I anticipate these will also be very close to 71, and not be outside the 67 and 74 "ballparks". So far my calculated 71 falls EXACTLY in the centre because I used our local value of C at 299792.458 k/s in the 2 x oneMpc x C/Pi^21 = 71 k/s/Mpc equation.

And what if it doesn't match 71 or anywhere near close to 71?

It is an intelligent and reasoned response to the concern of the majority of Europeans as to the evident belligerence of Russia under Putin and a heartfelt thank you to the courage of the Ukrainian people who are fighting and dying today, so we don't have to tomorrow. Slava Ukraine!

Close to 71 would be beween 67 to 74. It depends where in the universe they are exploring.

Again: And what if it doesn't match 71 or anywhere near close to 71?

What Ho value would you consider as not being close to 71 ?

You're not answering my question, which is honestly quite telling: And what if it doesn't match 71 or anywhere near close to 71?

Please make an attempt to answer the question as it stands: And what if it doesn't match 71 or anywhere near close to 71?
