I didn't mean to upset anyone, just giving some insight to the free power all around us. There is a reason we are one of the dumbest countries in science and math. If we did our science and math based on a level earth I gaurantee things will make more sense.

Hi, and welcome to our friendly forums!

I must have some bad fruit. I just held a refrigerator magnet up to a fresh apple and the magnet dropped. It startled the cat, who scampered off into another room, but not before running into the side table in the dining room, knocking off Mr. Etheldreda's Grandmother's urn. Now I have ashes to clean and I'll have to face my punishment when my husband gets home. I just hope I can stop crying before that. He hates to hear the crying noises. I don't believe you know what you're talking about, Mr. Sun, but it serves me right for being so gullible.

Mr. Holbeck, I suggest you don't listen to Mr. Sun here. You might get hurt.

At least I can see that these things does not make any sense to you. You really don't have any idea what you are talking about, do you?

Maybe he was referring to a gaysexual using LSD That would make pretty much as much sense than anything else he is saying.

There's you're proof that science is wrong right there! Gold was still golden colored before Einstein proposed the theory of relativity, so relativistic contributions in the Hamiltonian--whatever the Hell that is--CAN'T be the reason that gold has a golden color. Besides, as anyone who has read the Bible knows, pure gold doesn't have a golden color at all--it is transparent:

And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. Revelation 21:21

So take that, wad it up, and shove it up your relativistic Hamiltonian!

Do you even know what a Hamiltonian is?

Anyway, you have got the wrong idea about science. Einstein didn't invent relativistic effects, he discovered them. That means, they were there before, but we didn't know about them.

And as far as your quote goes: I happen to have a bar of pure gold. It's transparent like glass. 1 kg, current gold price is at roughly 40,000 $. Wanna buy it? Only 20,000 bucks. Special offer for you. I would send it to you via international mail, but be careful, this extra pure gold tends to shatter....

[Sickened by Humanity]

Okay. Wow. And you function as a human being?

Test 1:
Jumping up and landing in the same place is not a real test of the shape of the planet. Because we too are spinning WITH the Earth, and no human could jump high enough to break the force of gravity and hover over the earth to permit enough time to laps in order for any significant distance to pass under us.

Test 2:
Oh my word. Really? Gravity attracts smaller objects to larger objects. Your balloon theory is utterly preposterous, a balloon is bigger than the bits of paper, but it has a very low mass. Mass is nothing to do with size but WEIGHT. We are "attracted" to the Earth's core, which is made of Iron, very heavy indeed. as a sphere we can be anywhere on the planet and still be attracted to the core.

Test 3:
Are you high? That proves nothing, as you fly in a plane you are traveling on the same contours as the earth, which gives the impression of a never ending Travel far enough and you will reach the same place you started from. How could that happen? If the Earth was flat, and you got high enough you would see an end.

The world is round people, gravity exists and your religion is what is keeping humanity held back.

Do you make a habit on trampling over decent folks most cherished beliefs?

I suppose you don't believe in Hell, or Jesus or the Bible, either.

Just why are you here?

God bless

A.) Humans are not magnetic, so we are not attracted to the earth's core

B.) The Law of Attraction, or The Secret, is utter foolishness created by people who are too emotionally fragile to accept the reality of life without some childish fantasy of having ultimate control.

It's a shame you are sickened by humanity. You must be terribly depressed as an atheist, without any hope for the future. I shall keep you in my prayers. May the LORD chisel away at your sin-encrusted soul. May you hear the gentle knock of Jesus at the door to your heart.

Mrs Moss has one of those with some kind of a wire device for kneading bread. She uses it nearly every day.

Are you interested in a pure glass, err, I mean, gold bar? Only 20 grands...

Humans are not magnetic

So I guess that MRI images which allow detecting cancer are just an illusion?

Not an illusion; a liberal conspiracy designed to make people feel good about giving away their own hard-earned money to attention whores who want a hand out. It's cheaper than a communist civil war to dupe people into thinking it's in their best interests to give their money to the government. They do this because they know the government will then turn around and give them the mother load if they whine hard enough. From where do you think the hospitals get the kind of money to pay for these so-called magnetic, cancer detecting machines?

Sweetie, you really did not read this quote, did you. Maybe you should look it up in your native dialect (assuming the Holy Bible was even translated into it).

Here is this verse in KJV again:

Revelation 21:21: And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.

I put in bold the second part because only this part is relevant to your babbling. What does it says there? 1) A certain street in a certain city was "pure gold." So far so good, right?

Now, let's stop here for a second and let's think of some adjectives we could think of when describing gold. It's heavy. It's yellow. It's shiny. Hmm, what else can we describe as shiny? Glass, for example. And this is how a metaphor is born: let's compare shiny gold to shiny glass. How do I know this is a metaphor? Because it says:

and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.

That "as it" part means "similarly to."

If you don't know what a "metaphor" is, look it up on Google.

If you don't believe me that gold is shiny (like glass), here is a nice image for ya:



You can actually see the reflection of the door or something in that gold. I don't know about you, but for me this is shiny "as it were transparent glass."

PS: I apologize for such a huge image, but I really want that gold to shine on your computer screen.

Hmm, I though you had private health care, and only since the invention of Obamacare did the government interfere (with the exception of medicare, or whatever your pensioners health care stuff was called). Obamacare was introduced in 2010.

now look here

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magneti...maging#History

In 1980 Paul Bottomley joined the GE Research Center in Schenectady, NY, and his team ordered the highest field-strength magnet then available — a 1.5T system — and built the first high-field and overcame problems of coil design, RF penetration and signal-to-noise ratio to build the first whole-body MRI/MRS scanner.

It became a diagnostic tool in medicine in the 1980s. Ok, according to wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_...#United_States

So how do you explain that? Actually, at least one third of your hospitals are privately owned according to wikipedia, so I don't really get how that is necessarily a cospiracy made up to trick people into overfunding their government.

Hello Krunsch.

It is true there are many private churches here but most of them are Catholic churches and I do not like to go to them because you see nuns and priests making the rounds with the doctors and they are very scary nuns refuse to have children for Jesus and priests rape little children.

Also many of the people on the Supreme Court are Catholics just a few months ago they had a case The United States vs. Windsor and they said that lesbians could get married and did not have to pay taxes when they died and they have not read Leviticus or Romans or maybe they did not use Post-It Notes to remind them of Leviticus and Romans I could send them some I have a bunch.

Thank you.

@Basilissa Thanks for pointing out the painly obious to WWJDnow, even though I cannot cash in on christian ignorance now. I guess that will be left to teleevangelists.

By the way, the picture is really nice. Gold is almost always a peasant sight.

Stop misquoting True Christians™, you little twerp!

Peasant? You mean it, like, bucolic? I dunno, I always associated it with mansions and not cow poop.

[Mark L. Snyde, PhD]

Another argument that can be made for a flat Earth is to observe that our weight does not decrease rapidly as we move up, such as in an airplane or on a mountain.

Now, a physicist is going to tell you that Newton's universal law of gravity states that the gravitational force between two objects varies inversely as the square of the distance between them, obeying the so-called inverse square law of radiation.

Anyone who knows a bit about differential calculus can attest to the fact that such a relation decreases very rapidly, in fact this rate of change is an inverse cubic relationship via the power rule for differentiation.

Hence, if the Earth were round, our weight would decrease very rapidly as we gain altitude. But, if you take your trusty bathroom scale with you on an airplane you will find your weight is the same as it was on the ground, and therefore we conclude that the force of gravity is constant.

Using a bit of integral calculus, it is easy to show that the only geometry that gives rise to a constant gravitational field is a flat one. It's very elementary.

Therefore, we are led to conclude that the Earth is flat.

Now, don't get me wrong Brothers and Sisters in Christ, we clearly don't need this at all because the Bible plainly tells us the Earth is flat. I post this only for those who choose not to take Our Lord at His Word, but who will gladly blindly follow science. And so I use a bit of science to confirm what God has already told us in order to win these abominable heathens over to The Lord.
