If I remember the formula correctly God is going 0.999999999996242c.

I am confused.    

Yes, I know that.  I was responding to someone that said we probably could not create a singularity.  The LHC may be able to ever so briefly create them.  The neat thing about it is we will be able to test if Hawking radiation(Virtual Particle Production arround a black hole...

LucasPA, have a question for ya, trying to understand more about this stuff. If you have a population of say 100,000 critters and 20% or 20,000 have the slightly bigger middle toe. If 70% of the population dies to things not related to that feature, then 6,000 of the individuals with the...

Large Hadron Collider http://lhc-new-homepage.web.cern.ch/lhc-new-homepage/ I believe one of the outcomes expected from the LHC is Producing alot of mini black holes. Yup here is a small story about it. http://unisci.com/stories/20014/1001012.htm Edited bacause I cannot spell:)

Jutsuka, are ya sure it is Matter anti matter pairs? If it is then you actually have energy being created, Anti-matter is postive energy matter, so if it was 1 unit of matter and 1 unit of anti-matter you would end up with 2 units of energy when they anhilate. If that was true, we would see...

Lucaspa, he said “If he provided a testable proof or postulate for everything in the Bible, what would be left to accept on faith?” I read that as faith without evidence/reason. I agree with the rest of your post I guess, but I do not think that is the kind of faith he is talking about...

John, I am not as up to speed on this as I would like but it is my understanding that the placebo effect is largely an artifact of poorly designed testing procedures and at best has a temporary effect on subjective areas of medicine. Do you know of any studies that show the numbers you have...

My question to you is what is so special about accepting something on faith?  In every other aspect of your life, accepting something on faith is a rather dumb thing to do. 

"See" was probably a bad choice of words:) I used "see" kinda figuatively, Like we can see with the minds eye. 10^-43 is where that breaks down.

Inflation is the most widely accepted at the moment.  I say at the moment because we cannot see anything earlier than 10^-43 seconds after the big bang.  However Inflationary Big Bang cosmology has made alot of predictions in what we should see in the universe and it has not been...

Doh, I guess I should not do math when I am running late to go get pizza.  I used a trillion instead of a billion :( Still 1,033,902,439 times the speed of light is as you say very very fast:)        

We traverse the universe once every 82 years? Hmmmm, we can see 13.5 billion light years in every direction we look. So at a minimum the diameter of the Universe is 27 billion light years. That means the minimum circumfrence of the universe is 84.78 Billion Light Years. Or...

Morat, Radiometric dating uses decay into daughter isotopes as the clock, doesn't it? Atomic clocks don't do that, they work like this: "To create a clock, cesium is first heated so that atoms boil off and pass down a tube maintained at a high vacuum. First they pass through a magnetic...

Light does not have rest mass. It bends as it follows the curature of spacetime created by mass.

Well assuming that we can get off this rock before we kill ourselves. It may become a problem, but who knows what we will be capable of in the next few million years :) We have went from barely being better than animals to space flight in a few thousand years. What do ya think we can do in...

Hey guys look at the new M2P2 concepts. It is a magnetic protection system that also provides thrust for the spacecraft. It makes a big magnetic bubble arround the spacecraft and the solar wind pushes it. pretty cool stuff.   http://spacescience.com/headlines/y2000/ast04oct_1.htm

Yes it does Morat, look again From your link, this is just the fed income tax. top 1% of returns paid 36% of all taxes top 5% of returns paid 56.1% of all taxes. top 20% of returns paid 81.7% of all taxes. top 40% of returns paid 95.7% of all taxes. What I posted before is...

OK Morat, using your link, the numbers are just about the same. top 1% of returns paid 25.1% of all taxes top 10% of returns paid 41.2% of all taxes. top 20% of returns paid 67.7% of all taxes. top 40% of returns paid 85.6% of all taxes. The one change I would love to see...

Just some info from the IRS Stats page. top 1% of returns paid 29% of taxes, yet earned only 15% of income. top 10% of returns (average Income $158,000) paid 63% of all taxes. top 20% of returns (average Income $120,000) paid 79% of all taxes. top 40% of returns paid 94% of all...
