General relativity

General relativity (a theory of gravity).
No deity included.

I expect a lot of pigeons on this thread, but that's okay. Pigeons seem to be prevalent on this forum.

I find your topic relatively general.

 

[Chesterton]

Everything's relative.

Everything [in this universe] is relative.

A diety doesn't need to be included in a theory to still be behind what the theory discusses.

If God is omniscient, He knows everything, even things that are relative. You know, because He knows EVERYTHING. Therefore, God is omnicient.

Woop.

I'll keep that in mind.
And I might* quote you from time to time on that



*No, make that "will"

Hope your day is going relatively well

Within and without: EVERYthing's relative.

I even capitalised it.

But he can't, so he doesn't. It's like saying he can make a burrito so hot even he couldn't eat it.

And I don't even know what a burrito is.

This is what Wikipedia showed me:

Therefore, my disproof of God's existence by way of General relativity is complete.

Yes, it does . Otherwise, the theory is inaccurate (or incomplete), which means it's technically false, which means the deity wasn't behind it. A complete description of reality would necessarily include the deity who instigated it .

Even quantum mechanics has wave-vectors, and they don't even exist!

Yeah, I think I mispoke. You certainly could be right, and I think you are.

Slow down.

Even I can know how fast something is going relative to something else, so what is this supposed to mean?

Relativity: The faster things go, the weirder things get.

 

[dewaddict84]

Yeah, I'm sorry. Anyone that makes claims about god based on the ToR is REALLY stretching the bounds of logic. Please don't abuse science like that.

I definitely feel weirder the faster I go - especially if I'm on something that goes up and down or round and round.

Being on things that make you go faster is so much fun.

No, it's terrifying and makes you feel sick Unless of course, relatively speaking, it doesn't appear that youre going very fast, like on a large plane.

If I were in a car going at the speed of a plane I would be scared stiff

Now that sounds like fun!

There was a young lady of Wight
Who travelled much faster than light.
She departed one day,
In a relative way,
And arrived on the previous night.

Assuming an object is not moving, and gravity isn't a force, what makes it fall?

According to the Big Bang theory, the space containing the universe expanded into an empty space which was already there, I'm assuming. But I'm thinking matter probably expanded into the fourth dimension - time - creating space-time. Anyways, the equations which describe gravity must have existed before the Big Bang. A Bang wouldn't create an equation. Equations are not material things. They belong to the mind. Perhaps this proves the mind of God existed before gravity.

hmm. I see your point.

but how does this disprove God?
