You asked for the proof, you got it.

Pardon me for literally understanding everything.
April 08, 2017 at 00:35
Let me hold you by the hand and give you a childish example: An equation may have a solution, which you may prove must exist, but that does not mean y...

You are lying. What do axiomatic systems have to do with the fundamental comprehensibility of reality? So you are happy to bullshit, but want a refere...

If you can't explain your claimed relevance of Gödel's 2nd theorem to the comprehensibility of reality, then you have been caught bull-shitting.
April 07, 2017 at 23:44
Please explain the relevance of Gödel's 2nd theorem?
April 07, 2017 at 23:40
It would help if you could construct a sentence. Anyway, it is proved that reality is comprehensible. it is an exact physical law.
April 07, 2017 at 23:27
Does it? What do you know?

Sorry to burst your bubble, but it is proved that reality is perfectly comprehensible.

Except that quarks, leptons, and bosons are point particles.

You mean likr non-computable numbers?

But you said: Which means, according to you, the Standard Model is wrong. Please explain.

#Nice Go ahead and trivialize 86 dead and 434 injured.

That is false. There are no more "worlds" in Many Worlds than already exist in cosmology. And the "worlds" don't proliferate. There is no "price" to p...

Except when we are dealing with quarks, leptons or bosons.

But those b-modes in the polarization of the CMB, if they are ever observed, will be from before the big-bang.

Except that he explains that there is an interpretation that doesn't do that.

It's not growing, and that's the problem. Too many apologists with double standards making excuses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj8cqZiUclQ

If it's a "scale" it just needs renaming.

You asked what time could be reversed relative to. Total entropy is one measure. Anyway, not even God cand wind back something that doesn't exist. All...
April 06, 2017 at 13:35
The entropy of the visible universe for example.
April 06, 2017 at 11:51
Which is not what the universe is like. It's infinite.
April 06, 2017 at 11:46
There is no need for God to wind the clock back, because there is no clock. The state of the universe that correlates with the clock position of 4hrs ...
April 06, 2017 at 11:24
Actually, scientifically speaking, clocks don't measure time. According to quantum mechanics (and general relativity) the universe as a whole is at re...
April 06, 2017 at 10:30
But there is no clock, and 4hrs ago is still there, according to science anyway.
April 06, 2017 at 08:39
That is indeed the prejudice. It is entirely possible (as I mentioned earlier) that an exact law of nature at a higher level will perform the explanat...

Surely you are capable of giving the "about 52 distinct meanings" of "idribuhunna" that you claim to exist. If you can't, I think we will conclude tha...
April 04, 2017 at 17:52
Perhaps you could list those 52 meanings, and show exactly where the word "idribuhunna" appears in the famous wife-beating verse?
April 04, 2017 at 16:39
Not sure I should converse with you, as you have been branded a racist for criticizing an ideology.
April 04, 2017 at 12:28
You can read the Quran(4:34) in whatever language or translation you like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opENHZHfexg

Perfectly acceptable to beat your wife in Islam.

So killing atheists is fine because other people have done nasty stuff?
April 03, 2017 at 16:37
Why is it that the only states that kill apostates, blasphemers, witches, gays, and permit child-marriage are Islamic?
