I try - but I tend to be a little sociopathic. I noticed that there was no answer to my string theory question.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rhys 0 #185 September 30, 2010 QuoteThe origin of our life. Anything else is irrelevant and pure conjecture. Life several billion years ago on a planet in a different galaxy has nothing to do with the origin of life on this planet, that led directly to us. I see you adding disclamers now to try to validate your point. Life is life, and if it is a billion light years away and existed a billion years ago, it is/was still life. We were talking about the origin of life and to say for sure that there is no correlation between life elsewhere and life here. While being sure (I am not but you have said that you were)that there is actually life elsewhere is idiotic in my mind. But it is your freedom and mine to think what we like. We may never know for sure whether life exists or had existed elsewhere, that is why it is more sensible to be Agnostic.

It's got nothing to do with agnosticism. QuoteAtheists and the faithful are too dependent on what is known, while ignoring what isn't. The faithful aren't dependent on what is known, they're dependent on what is made up. And you can't depend on the unknown for anything, because you don't know what it is. What you can't do is make up vague hypotheticals and use them to argue that maybe we don't actually know any of the things we think we know. Because we do. We've tested them.

rhys 0 #187 September 30, 2010 QuoteIt's got nothing to do with agnosticism. You are most certinly wrong about that; ag·nos·ti·cism [ag-nos-tuh-siz-uhm] –noun 1. the doctrine or belief of an agnostic. 2. an intellectual doctrine or attitude affirming the uncertainty of all claims to ultimate knowledge. QuoteThe faithful aren't dependent on what is known, they're dependent on what is made up. And you can't depend on the unknown for anything, because you don't know what it is. I do agree that the faithful are dependant on what is made up. At least athiest use more intellectual information for thier standpoint, but thier conclusion still ignores what is not known. What is made up is a conclusion all the same, be it incorrect or not. I don't depend on the un-known, I respect it, I have no conclusion other than we will likely never know. QuoteWhat you can't do is make up vague hypotheticals and use them to argue that maybe we don't actually know any of the things we think we know. What I can conclude is that you don;t know everything, and will never do so. You conclusions exclude things you do not know, that is ignorant. My connection is too slow to wait for you tube to load at the moment, so I can't watch you wee clip at the mo.

skipbelt 0 #190 October 1, 2010 string theory , electromagnet energy behaves like a wave , and has wave like qualities , yet also has photonic qualities , which is a paradox as existence as one excludes coincidental existence as the other. a theory has been proposed that would account for this conflict . string theory , a string can have wave like behavior , and photonic behavior , as of yet it hasn't been explained how they can simultaneously !
