I think it is a farce that the bastion of "Democracy" ie US, is actually less democratic than Russia or China. The US is the worlds biggest protected Gerrymander. Surprisingly for a right wing party , the republican candidate is actually more left wing than either Clinton or Sanders introducing...
Hi
I was just looking at the Australian Bureau of Statistic figures, as we have just completed the 2016 Australian census.
Here are the results for 1911 - 2011.
The results for 2016 should be available in a month or two where I suspect the figure will exceed 30% at the expense of the...
Some Muslims believe in the "End of Days" prophesies like some Christians believe in the "rapture". I am sure many of them would support Trump, who could be then vilified as the great devil from the west, prior to the Armageddon in the middle east and speed up the self fulfilling prophecy...
from http://www.calpoly.edu/~rbrown/entropy.html
Based on the ideas of Lord Kelvin, Joule, Boltzmann, Carnot, and Clausius, the first and second laws of thermodynamics can now be restated in two profound sentences:
The total energy of the universe is a constant.
The total entropy of the...
Oh dear I think the author of your video needs to attend a Physics 101 lesson,
Its all out of context, it assumes relative means the human perception of time, rather than that of Special Relativity which basically is newtonian until really massive speeds are reached, I am not even sure the...
After sixty orbits of the sun, I reckon I have a pretty good handle on knowledge, could you point me in the direction of the knowledge I lack. If you are going to point me at the Bible, Quran, Mein Kampf, torah, Maos little red book or Tibetan Book of the Dead, don't worry I have looked at them...
The relationship between Space time and the theory of evolution. is simply that space time in our sector of the Universe has been relatively stable for eons, allowing complexity to evolve over billions of years. We have no super massive stars, black holes or high gravitation bodies immediately...
Why do you need a "who"?
All evidence suggests the universe is built from small things that, over the epochs of time, synergize and become more complex, while obeying the laws of physics, ie a "bottom - up" approach.
Rather than anthropomorphize faith myths, based on the "top-down" approach...
Absolutely Not!
IMHO Gods are fairy tales for adults.
I believe in a universe that is built from small things that, over the epochs of time, synergize and become more complex, while obeying the laws of physics,

We host many Saudi students studying in Melbourne, they have all been polite pleasant people to deal with, but at times I must laugh at their reluctance to go to beach in 40C heat in case they see a woman in a bikini. I respect their right to believe what they wish, but I am Australian and it...
The UK is not concerned with whether it remains in the European union or not, it is simply trying to protect its identity and borders.Obviously the killing of the pro-EU politician was home-borne local reactionary violence in response to the loss of the UKs identity, giving way to a civilization...
A side question on the nature of light. I have often pondered this question so I should really do the experiment but thought I'd ask you blokes what you rekon.
Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum having a property of an electric vector and a magnetic vector perpendicular to...

I think you missed the point, if the universe is rotating that is the proof of some previous system.
Think spinning Ice skater draws her arms in spins faster, puts her arms out spins slower. This is called the law of conservation of angular momentum. Even if the universe is spinning very...
I think the Big expansion is actually evidence for a previously collapsed local "universe".
Even god cannot bend the rules of mathematics and physics to instantaneously start this massive object spinning.
And if the object is spinning is there not a minimum size it can be without its outer...
From the article being discussed
I would go further and suggest it also means purity, chastity and religious piousness as well. In Saudi and other Islamic states eg Aceh all women must wear it so it is normal and everyone is happy.
However when it is not the norm such as in the west and...
As a person who is a realist, I find it amazing in this day and age when so many deep questions can be answered at the touch of a key, that we still have so many full grown adults that believe the mythical over the reality. As far as I am concerned heaven is right here and now in Warrandyte...
