• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I don't know, a lot of Quantum Physics sounds very Fizzben-esque. Likewise human physiology: Phenylephrine raises your blood pressure until you give too much, then it drops again; or Ketamine raises blood pressure unless your stress response is prolonged, in which case it drops it; and many effects show diurnal rhythms, being more or less pronounced at night, etc.

The world is complicated and the rules that govern it seem to gain complexity each year.

I suppose this is sort of a statement of faith, but I think the core equations are simple and elegant. The problem is that we can't solve those equations except in artificially simple scenarios like laboratory experiments. Like Newton's equations for gravity are simple, and even I can solve them for two bodies. However, when you add a third body it takes a real math talent to solve them. You get those Lagrange points and so forth. When you try to apply those rules to the rocks orbiting in the rings of Saturn you get very strange behaviors that seem like Fizzbin, and you probably need to develop approximated equations and simulations for use only in specific scenarios to deal with the math.

I imagine in the medical field it's Fizzbin-squared LOL
