Or another analogy is three times the mass of the sun compacted into your kitchen sink.

Oh yeah. . . watch this for 16mins if you dare! Black Holes Explained for Kids! - Bing video

Aha. The hypotheses keep coming.

Yes, that's a fair comment, so when I find theoretical physicists looking at work-arounds my interest is piqued.. Something similar to the butterfly effect has been proposed whereby the behaviour of a particle on one side of the universe instantaneously affects a particle on the other side of...

Yeah, stupid computers and stupid internet all because of stupid scientists and Christians inventing stupid formulas.

Bingo. One theory is that rather than linear FTL acceleration being achieved, spacetime is warped so that distant co-ordinates are continuously brought closer. Experiments are difficult because of the start-finish conundrum. A sensor array needs to know when a particle starts its journey and...

That would be when its momentum ceases. What would happen if Devin had a particle accelerator that could accelerate particles to exceed the speed of light?

I don't recall physics being taught in maths class, Addy . . . Now a thread called "Adding With Addy" would be a maths class. :)

As I said it is possible to arrive at the conclusion from Scripture, namely Ezekiel 28:13 where the analogy used to taunt the king of Tyre specifies "the perfect, anointed cherub" as being in Eden prior to being cast down due to iniquity. Eze 28:11-19 Moreover the word of the LORD came to...

Thanks for assembling here, JohnPaul.

If photons had mass they wouldn't be able to travel at the speed they do. Gravity and magnets can change the direction photons travel by acting on their momentum and frequency, but speed is not altered. I remember an interesting article about Distant Starlight and why it is practicle to view it...

Since Lucifer became Satan, existence and conflict have been conjoint. When religious differences lead to conflict the fault is not with religion but with humanity.

From my notes: There is a branch of Biblical Theology known as Satanology, which simply means the study of Satan. As you may know the name Satan means "adversary" which is defined as a person, group, or force that opposes. Firstly, God always knows everything that is knowable so He has always...

FTL = Faster Than Light. Can it be done? Light can be slowed by passing it through various translucent mediums, but velocities beyond the speed of light whilst theoretical have not been detected. Well, how would such velocities be detected for a start?

I've heard of Twitter.

No, you seem to have other trials. There are some "go-to" Scriptures that help thwart the power of darkness. Here's a great passage to lighten the load: Rom 5:1-11 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, (2) through whom also we have...

Many years ago I was the target of unreciprocated female admiration from an unwanted, unstable party. The matter resolved itself after a couple of years when I allowed her to meet my aged parents who took a dislike to her and left her in no doubt that her marriage fanatasy was a non-starter...

I'm moved to comment that strange things happen when threats to survival happen, at least they have to me. Did my brain concoct a brief scene in which an angel sitting at a desk looking down at documentation spoke to me saying "It is not yet your time", seconds after crashing on a motorcycle at...

One name comes to mind. Ian McCormack was a member and later a pastor in our congregation here back in the '80s & early '90s. He repeated his story ad nauseum in small groups, large groups, radio, TV, and eventually video and movie, giving rise to the fame he enjoys today. I saw the box...

I once read that John Calvin wasn't a Calvinist, meaning his beliefs didn't include a lot of the misinterpretations of Scripture propagated in his name.
