anyone that dont believe all these is a fool. how can you not believe what you can see physically? moon, sun, stars, comet, planet, galaxy etc? but u can believe something u do not see? Am not saying there is no God, but i believe that God is bigger than Bible Quran etc comprehension. That God is Science, Mother Nature.

No planes, phones, cars, ISS, in the Bible Quran and u guys believe in them. SMH

@JohnyDon22, pls I have a somewhat funny question but that has been bothering me since I read about inter-stellar stuff..

Why do stars(Planets, galaxies) seem to twinkle when viewed from earth?

Distortion of light by the earth's atmosphere, the light from these sources travel light years to get here and are distorted by our atmosphere, like looking at a piece of stone on a clear flowing river.

Planets don't twinkle though, that is the way you can distinguish planets from stars in our night sky. they don't twinkle and look a bit fuzzy.


and eerm, if the universe is infinitely spacious, how did we come about knowing about the black hole at the CENTRE...there shouldn't be any centre right?

The galaxy has a blackhole in the center not the entire universe.

All the people quoting me on a religious context i am sorry but you are all on a long thing i won't condescend that low as to reply such posts.

I am here for science.

I do not argue religions and beliefs here, if you want an arguement on that you all know exactly which section to mention me.

I won't degrade this thread to that level.

It is possible for you to see it all....beyond what the telescope could...beyond now...beyond the time factor for time is honestly a relative term and factor...

This is not the 'Motivational speech' type of "it is possible"... and you get nothing. Am talking about real adventures...but you must be bold and adventurous, plus you need to put in lots of love smiley love removes barriers, difficulty...

What evidence do you have to back up your faith in immortality, type that would make a man experience things 4 billion years away?

I wonder o, these people don't even understand the mechanism or ordinary calculator talkless of smartphones and yet they discredit the most intelligent people on Earth, in civilized countries people don't people don't discredit science or called scientists deceivers, most of the christians in the US agree with with evolution, that evolution is the mechanism God is using to create things.



they think building a spaceship and traveling outside our planet is a childsplay, they believe their pastors and shout amen when he says they would become billionaires before the ending of this year

years away from the Milky Way’s Galactic Center, on the inner edge of a minor
arm of the galaxy, named the Orion Arm

This idiots believe that the entire universe came into existence by chance. but they themselves will never leave their lives to chance to create same orderliness.
They still plan.co- ordinate and excute plans for the betterment of their pathetic lives. while claiming that this Universe that is several times more complex came by chance. is that not Insanity?

I just tire for them, anyways what do these ones know? Real scientists have made discoveries that convinced them there's a creator!

can you prove it or you just read it from your bible
I don't know why it's hard for you to believe the Universe created itself
but you be someone came from nowhere and started creating things,

Apart from reading it in the Bible all evidence prove that there's a creator, there must be cause for there to be effect!

Naa! No 'chieveboy's way' at all...although chieveboy is deep into it with personal experiences which of course is to be waved aside with an air of disbelieve.

It's important to clarify or expressly state that it's not a 'believe' thing (persay), it goes beyond believe to actuall experience (seeing is believing theys say).

Am talking of expanding the consciousness to polarize on whatever location desired. It's the natural way of seeing being and knowing! By this method, you of course won't have to wait light years before travelling...or finding out things...someone mentioned light is the fastest agent known to man, but is it faster than attention?

Science is just scratching the surface of what others. Have long discovered and are experiencing and daily exploring. The issue is science depends on physical aparatus to discover,prove and disprove facts...the thing is: science as it is has not arrived yet when it comes what is and what is not...so I may tell you ( cocktopuss) an experience with aliens for instance...but no scientific means to prove to you...so what is the way out? The way out is for you to learn to expand your consciousness to these locations where aliens are...for with the consciousness, no barrier, no time, no space, no matter! All you got is freedom, Love and strenght!!!

so anything not written in the bible is nonsense to you?

This exactly when religious beliefs becomes dangerous, it diminishes our youths and mars our intellectual evolution keeping Africa in sheepish ignorance that even the whites who brought these religions here have abandoned it.

well i don't see "Phone" in the bible why are you using one, drop the ancient book and pick up educating books this is the 21st century not a bronze age period.

#Sighs . . . I weak


@ johnydon22

lol i feel for you bro ........ grin grin


There's a Chinese proverb that says, “When the sage points at the moon, the fool looks at the finger.”
guess what happened here........... wink wink


my personal view only which others need not subscribe ie
religion is simply human imagination, a product of mind, a basis of faith, which varies from individual to individual on the basis of upbringing , educational background , indoctrination AKA brainwashing grin , personal interpretations and real life circumstances/factors encountered in life.

but science is hard cold proven facts it does not vary once proven with evidence.


tongue tongue
somebody please remind me of the jehadis-terrorists who also believe, have faith in god but whose actions are contrary to any thing related to GOD (supposedly a holy being) but their faith in their interpretation of god makes them do cruel, inhuman and irrational things because ultimately religion is a matter of faith, a product of mindset, a product of brainwashing, real life circumstances etc isn't it same as us and contradictoryly everybody thinks he/she is correct in her faith.

hell this is as confusing as the universe isnt it grin grin
dont blame me blame the human mind wink wink
and we wonder why humans and the world is a big mess undecided undecided

@ johnydon22
what you said earlier reminds me of Jomo Kenyatta ( a Kenyan politician, the first President of Kenya and above all a Pan-Africanist )

who said "When the Missionaries arrived, the Africans had the Land and the Missionaries had the Bible. They taught how to pray with our eyes closed. When we opened them, they had the land and we had the Bible".

reason why Nigerians , Africans settled in America and Europe do so well in science and technological fields and have a open realistic viewpoint, while the same unfortunately cannot be said for Africans living in Africa. undecided undecided

@ johnydon22
back to topic whats your opinion/position on existence of Tachyon or tachyonic particle , some are claiming that neutrino is very likely a tachyon or faster-than-light particle .this deduction was supposedly made from observations, which involves the tiny variations in cosmic background radiation left over from the big bang, while another one involves the shape of the cosmic ray spectrum.
i guess we will have to wait for the results of KATRIN experiment.

I laugh ......see the person trying to disprove God. does not know basic science. next time address me as Engineer. i know and pratice science everyday clown.

www. protein-cell.org/
Did u actually read that link u shared I doubt. Protein can be classified based on their 3D conformation either in a sub family. Proteins are either primary, secondary, tetiary, or quatenary structure. O boy! read that link u shared it says nothing of protein being cells. Unless u want to call pirons cell but they are not though they are proteins that cause diseases. As a biochemist I would like to give u a good lecture on proteins but I doubt u would understand, for a guy who believes d cloud is held by a pillar. Anyways u know nothing of natural science u are just an engineer. And a disgrace to d engineering community.
