    The First Law of Thermodynamics

    That's cool So anyways, guys, how about physics? I think I've learned what I needed to know. Just need to delve into deeper realms of closed/open systems. Side note... IS the universe "infinite"?

    The First Law of Thermodynamics

    Thank you for reading my initial post and discussing the first law of thermodynamics as asked. I appreciate your co-operation and wealth of information related to physics. On a less sarcastic note, thank YOU for ACTUALLY speaking on topic in the midst of unrelated babbling. This does...

    The First Law of Thermodynamics

    Sorry for the delay guys. So from what I understand, I didn't have a full grasp on the first law. Essentially, energy cannot be created or destroyed under certain conditions? And it's hard to determine whether our "universe" meets those conditions (is it infinite?) In my personal experience...

    The First Law of Thermodynamics

    The first law: Energy cannot be created or destroyed. Yet energy IS. Ok, so common sense tells me: If something exists, yet it cannot be made or unmade, doesn't that imply eternity? Doesn't this essentially imply that the universe - or that which initiated THIS universe, whether...

    McDonald's Admits Salads Only Make Up 2 To 3 Percent Of Sales

    +1. The company should be required to provide a list of ingredients and so forth, but I don't believe it's the company's "fault". People stuff their face with stuff that's KNOWN to be bad for you - then they want to sue them for being overweight or having high cholesterol? Putting the...

    Deference to Islam?

    I love the numbers game. Number of people killed by Islamic terrorists: many. The highest number related to any religious faction, from what I've gathered. Number of people killed by Christian terrorists: quite a few. This isn't including the countless acts of terror in the Old Testament...

    Don't compare Christianity with Islam

    Exactly. The problem I see is that many people who argue against True Islam™ are also supporters of True Religion™ in general - THEIR denomination's interpretation is correct; THEIR personals beliefs are the objectively "valid" ones. Thus, they assume that everything is black and white. People...

    McDonald's Admits Salads Only Make Up 2 To 3 Percent Of Sales

    Ironically, after watching Super Size Me, the first thing I thought was "I could go for a Big Mac". Terrible stuff though. And yeah, their salads are gross.

    Don't compare Christianity with Islam

    Plus, if we really want to play the numbers game, how many Buddhist terrorists have we encountered? Mainstream Christianity wants to portray Islam in a negative manner based on the frequency and ferocity of violent behavior. I agree, to an extent; any belief that causes such destruction should...

    Don't compare Christianity with Islam

    Point noted. However, my problem still lies with the attitude that "Some do; therefore, all do". Not all Americans are ignorant, selfish, and greedy, even if it IS a majority of us. I understand that the situation with Islam is beyond greed and selfishness; it is resulting in death and...

    Evolution

    Even though something is virtually fact, due to certain circumstances, it must be dubbed a "theory". That doesn't mean it isn't true, or isn't useful. This actually makes another one of my points: regardless of whether something is accepted by certain groups (Evolution generally discarded by...

    Don't compare Christianity with Islam

    From what I understand, overall, Islam surpasses Christianity by far in terms of death and violence. (This is not surprising to me, as the Koran tends to focus on the harsher qualities of God/Allah than the Bible.) My problem lies with this: most Christians that I've come across do not want to...

    Evolution

    Exactly, I was just utilizing their argument.

    Evolution

    I do agree with you - I wasn't trying to say that the "6 day" theory is equally FEASIBLE as the evolutionary theory. Still, even in the world of science, evolution is deemed a "theory". This could be due to the strong religious opposition to it. Note that I support evolution 100%, and I...

    Evolution

    Uh, in case you didn't notice, I haven't referenced scripture once, and I've essentially been cast aside from the true "Christians" for holding "heretical" interests, so I would appreciate it if you wouldn't lump me in with those blinded by dogma. Evolution occurred through random genetic...
