I think that it isn't just as simple as "Women are bad at physics." Some of the best physics minds are women. I think it has more to do with the way women and men percieve the world. Men tend (that means not all do!) to look at the world in a materialistic fashion, and the Idea of physics just...

In short, yes. We could never see the infinite variables, nor could we predict how they will interact, but things all already have a set path. Even these people with the innate ability to think past this, as you call it, would only be reinforcing it, as this ability was gained through the...

No,they do not. But anyway, this is getting off track. we were wondering if noting can exist,which it can't, as it's just the lack of something. It is nota noun, really.

Strange, i was always of the opinion that a Theory of Everything was a complete cosmological model. First off, you likely cannot properly describe to me your spiritual feelings, and not having felt them, I cannot understand what they are, or more importantly, what they might mean. The same...

Yeah, I do believe that this forum is reserved for the more scientific and mind exploding theories. You describe a feeling, rather than logic, so it should go into philosophy. But since it will move anyway, I'd like to discuss it. So, the way you describe God is that He/She/It does not...

Name: Pyrite cause of death: massive neural explosion caused by contemplating Russel's unified field theory . It is estimated that the explosion took out three city blocks.

Y'know, I like you and all, but I have to say that you're the first name that came to mind. You have to admit that you hold on to your view of the world with a bit of an iron grip, Zero. I think the main problem is likely the conviction with which you hold most of your ideas. You're a great...

in a word, no. There is reality, and there is what we observe. Our observations are based on our sences. We know that those sences can and often do lie to us. that is the objective, and the subjective. The truth, and what we construct from what we see and hear and feel. Whether or not the...

I think it was mostly the fact that no one could describe what it was that motivated them. Generals knew not what bravery was, and judges did not understand justice. Priests, who center their lives, and their follower's lives, around a religion, cannot satisfactorily describe faith. most of the...

As far as I'm concerned, there are only two theories that make any possible sence. either something has always existed, or space and time just blinked into existence, which is the same thing. as far as creationism goes, god(s) is/are considered a thing/things, which means that nothingness did...

I've recently had a sci fi fiction going. I don't really know what to say about it.

I have to say that the abortion example is a little different. One has to decide whether the fetus is a part of the womans body, or a seperate, living being. In the case of this, I can only reccomend trying to convince them (subtly) to allow you to call an ambulence or such. Perhaps get them...

I honestly can't think of anything coherent to say about this. If I do, I'll get back to you.

This is news to me. Could you possibly be a bit more specific/give examples?

It never really stops getting confusing. and don't worry, I won't tell you any spoilers.
