in a cellar on Boston's Dartmouth Street.
General Fusion's team of more
than 50 scientists and engineers are world leaders

Two of the most vaunted
physics results of the past few years — the announced discovery of both cosmic inflation and gravitational waves at the BICEP2 experiment
in Antarctica, and the supposed discovery of superluminal neutrinos at the Swiss - Italian border — have now been retracted, with far less fanfare
than when they were first published.
The simple fact is that if matter can neither be created or destroyed
in a normal chemical reaction
than how does the «god» come up with something out of nothing... remember matter CAN NOT be CREATED or DESTROYED, so if this god follows the normal
physics and chemistry
than it could not have created the universe either... it just exists b / c it exists..
But your knowledge of science is so much less
than so many Catholic Priests such as Gregor Mendel (1822 - 1884) the father of modern genetics, Georges Lemaître (1894 - 1966) the person who proposed the Big Bang Theory and Stanley Jaki Born
in Hungary, he earned doctorates
in Systematic Theology and Nuclear

than to have them fit the experimental data.
Modern science has extended rather
than radically altered our understanding of the universe,
in two directions: the very large, with the expanding universe, and the very small,
in genetics and particle
physics.
In a recent book, Our Mathematical Universe: My Quest for the Ultimate Nature of Reality, Max Tegmark, a
physics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, argues that the idea of equivalence means that the universe is a mathematical structure rather
than a reality merely describable by mathematics.
Such a notion as emergence, for example, which is closely allied with the principle of indeterminacy and uncertainty and which was later to develop
in physics, actually assumed more credence
in physics before it took root
in biology and psychology; yet it has more significant implications for the data of the organic and social sciences
than for
physics.
One needs the corrective of Bergson and James at times
in reading Whitehead, however, lest the formative notions of the new
physics implicit
in his imagery render one's understanding of this creative nexus more external and rationalistic
than it actually can be.
However, Whitehead was brought to his metaphysics of relations through the revolution
in the new
physics; this fact has given to his thought,
in designating the nexus of events, more externality
than he really means to convey, or should imply.
Yes, I understand that quantum entanglement is not actually showing anything moving faster
than the speed of light, or moving at all for that matter, but it does show how little we truly understand about how both space - time and
physics and quantum
physics behave so if we are making a claim based on a predictor we don't yet understand then there is virtually no chance we might be correct
in our hypothesis.
Isn't it amazing thinking,
physics and mechanics work, but there is no design, just random happenstance... Takes more faith to believe
in evolution
than that God actually created the world we know.
Take an intro astronomy class and they can explain
in basic terms (using basic concepts
in math and
physics) how time unfolded and what conditions were — and subsequently why «magical bits of everything» formed
in to matter
than led to the birth of the dinosaurs... It's ok to open your mind; and perhaps even God was the cause of the Big Bang.
Evolution has more holes
than cheese, when you ask questions like, how did this happen
in spite of the laws of
physics, the answer is I do not know.
Even with a BSC
in physics I often feel inadequate discussing
physics with anyone who has had more
than two or three years of grad - level schooling on the subject.
According to
physics, all the normal matter and energy
in the universe are reverberations on a much larger medium
than spacetime itself.
In this concept of existences as teleological processes, Whitehead thought, we find the proper way for the philosopher to perform his task, now that the basic idea of
physics has become the flux of energy rather
than the particle of Newtonian matter.
Atheists can prove that science exists, that the earth is more
than 6000 years old, that their is NO WAY to build the size ark that Noah built and do what is claimed
in the bible, again when making extraordinary claims, we need evidence and we know that snakes do not talk, that the laws of
physics can not be suspended and that nearly EVERY claim
in the bible is false.
In fact,
physics now resembles metaphysics more
than anything else, with its theories to explain how realities unobservable by us produce the visible world.
The point of this discussion is not to give a lesson
in physics, but to help the reader view the universe as composed of events rather
than things.
And sometimes it seems there is more room for wonder, mystery, grandeur, delight, beauty, and reverence
in astro -
physics than in religion.
More
than this, he was sensitive to the fact that the writing of philosophy's history can be at once technically competent and narrow He praised the «philosophical greatness achieved
in American philosophy, from Peirce to Santayana, but he complained of the cultural chauvinism
in failing to recognize it.5 According to Hartshorne, «One might about as easily reach great heights
in philosophy without benefit of the work done
in modern America as to reach them
in physics without using the work of modern Germans» (Creativity 11).
And since the «heat shield» was made up of what NASA called «special plastic» back
in the day, and since NASA indeed stated that reentry from such a voyage generates temperatures «10 times hotter
than the sun», then we can know that one would burn - up upon reentry as do meteors and true
physics confirms.
First, to say that this pear has mass might be to say that within the framework of
physics and systems of physical measurement and associated units, there is some number m greater
than zero, which, to some unspecified tolerance, functions as a parameter
in a mechanical analysis of the pear's behavior.
question are much more likely to be found
in Einstein's equations, quantum
physics, large particle accelerators and radio telescopes
than in Genesis Chapters 1 through 20.
But one can hardly dispute that Whitehead has engaged more fully
than any other
in the engagement with recent
physics.
One prominent evolutionary biologist recently wrote, «
In science's pecking order, evolutionary biology lurks somewhere near the bottom, far closer to phrenology
than to
physics.»
To that extent the formula more or less fits
physics and biology, though to different degrees, but more
than it does philosophy and other branches of inquiry which directly concern man as a whole,
in his totality.
No two men are more significant
in the history of
physics, or assume more prominent positions
in introductory courses,
than Galileo and Newton.
Newton himself was more interested
in alchemy
than physics.
Birch and Cobb maintain that the ecological model is more adequate
than the mechanical model for explaining DNA, the cell, other biological subject matter (as well as subatomic
physics), because it holds that living things behave as they do only
in interaction with other things which constitute their environment (LL 83) and because «the constituent elements of the structure at each level (of an organism) operate
in patterns of interconnectedness which are not mechanical» (LL 83).
Rather
than conclude skeptically, however, that process theism is an equally nonsensical alternative to traditional theism, this analysis of the interpoint theory discloses that the logical criteria for verifying God's location
in spacetime have collapsed with the advent of relativity
physics.
Considering his condition is likely what allowed him to spend most of his time thinking and doing
physics, thus making him one of the world's most well respected physicists and living far longer with ALS
than any other individual before him, and is still able to communicate, I would imagine Maire is correct and he is an atheist not because he is all that bitter, but because the further people tend to go
in science, the less they tend to believe
in religion.
The problem here is that the special knowledge that such people have (knowledge about
physics) doesn't make their opinions
in this area any better
than those of anyone else.
The fact that
in the later phases of an actual occasion this scalar form overwhelms the original vector form, and the fact that the scalar quantity of inertia was dominant
in Newtonian
physics, have led to a tendency to spatialize reality, to ignore the fact that all fundamental physical quantities are vector rather
than scalar (PR 268, 319).
Sue, since you have a doctorate
in Physics (would love to know who was on your dissertation board) please explain to Richard (the one that keeps cheerleading with no valuable inputs of his own) how Hawking's calculation of monkey's eventually typing out a Shakespear sonnet would take a prohibitive time — longer
than the known universe and longer
than the universe would last... hint you can google it too

One begins with a restricted generalization descriptive of phenomena encountered
in one field of inquiry (e.g.,
physics, physiology, psychology, etc.); one then (as he says) «makes a flight into the thin air of generalization» — framing the description to cover all actualities — finally landing again to see how the theory squares with observed fact
in areas other
than the one from which the inquiry began.
In this talk I shall, however, describe in general terms how the quantum theory, understood somewhat more imaginatively than is usually done, can point to a new order in physics, which I call the enfolded order, or the implicate orde

In a few thousand years of recorded history, we went from dwelling in caves and mud huts and tee - pees, not understanding the natural world around us, or the broader universe, to being able to travel through space, using reason to ferret out the hidden secrets of how the world works, from physics to chemistry to biology, we worked out the tools and rules underpinning it all, mathematics, and now we can see objects that are almost impossibly small, the very tiniest building blocks of matter, (or at least we can examine them, even if you can't «see» them because you're using something other than your eyes and photons to view them) to the very farthest objects, the planets circling other, distant stars, that are in their own way, too small to see from here, like the atoms and parts of atoms themselves, detected indirectly, but indisputably THER
