eddycolo:consequently yes...in your perspective in the car(at a constant speed) you are stationary while they moving away from you...and in their perspective the same applies...it's RELATIVE to each observer's perspective... In the classical sense or mundane reasoning,the people are stationary, this is very fallacious...you can't put one observer's perspective over another... I said, what is the effects of light wave when you (the observer) are moving away from the light source? Not the light source moving away from you. Is it blue or redshift or no effects at all. Of course you said redshift. But you got me confused of your answer by posting an article from wiki telling me the effects of light wave when the light source is moving away from the obsever. Thats not what I want to know. I want to know the effects when the observer is moving away from the light source.It's RELATIVE it doesn't make a difference who moves away from what....the increase in distance away from the any light source would still bear the same result...hence the above explanation I gave you Or the observer and the light source moving away from each other at the same time. Why are now so sure that a light sources 2x the distance is moving 2x fast?This just shows you weren't ever paying attention... Here's a recap...; Space expands and it can expand faster than light at sufficient distances... Expansion of space pulls galaxies away from each other... Galaxies relative to each other which are moving away are redshifting in either observation... Galaxies spaced twice relative to you are 2x moving away and so are you to any observer there... Do you have problems comprehending this?! ![]() |
Esdb3:lol....I see I ticked a nerve ...goodbye.. |
vooks:Let's say I did make such a thread what would you present in it besides pseudoscience? ![]() I'd reckon you'll also call davidylan to do his part too by directing me to answersingenesis...lol ![]() |
You know you don't have a valid point when you project your own position on your opponent.... Christian: I'm religious!? Well you're religious too! Christian: I have faith!? Well you have faith too! Christian: The bible is a fairy-tale!? Well science is a fairy tale too! Creationists like vooks and OLAADEGBU are a classic example of this... |
Esdb3:So the name "john" didn't exist till your religion came? You're almost as goofy as kingebukasblog... ![]() |
eddycolo:I just wanted to clarify that we were saying the same thing...so it's best to always ee specific.. Regarding your comment about galaxies two times the distance, moving 2x as fast away from us. My question is, if nothing is stationary in the unverse. If everything is moving at a speed close or faster than light, then how do you tell if the thing 2x the distance and moving 2x the speed is moving away from us and not us moving two time away from the thing?It's practically the same thing to each observer....when you're in a car and you're accelerating, people you pass look like they're moving away from you and to them you'd be moving away from them...that's why speed is RELATIVE to each observer... Another question is;It's still a redshift If a source of the light is moving away from an observer, then redshift (z > 0) occurs; if the source moves towards the observer, then blueshift (z < 0) occurs. This is true for all electromagnetic waves and is explained by the Doppler effect. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshift I could point you to a simplified childrens annotation if you're interested... |
OLAADEGBU:I'm sure science doesn't confirm sticks turning to snakes, lakes turning to blood and immaculate conceptions unless you mean pseudoscience...... ![]() And it's funny how you say something is a fairy tale when the definition of fairy tales involves magic, giants, witches, wizards, incantation spells, beings of extraordinary power and speaking things into being from thin air.... Sorry but it's time someone told you to get your head out of your a.$$ ![]() |
eddycolo:Again, no object travels faster than light.... And it's like this....light travels at a finite speed...so nobody or nothing is stationary...light or the light that was once closest to you will meet you... Or if you're a physics junkie d=s(or c)/t , For a certain distance(d), lights speed(c) can travel to you at some future certain time(t)...and since space is linked with time...an object that is let's say spaced by two galaxies is moving 2x as fast away from you...so it can only be seen at a point in time when it was closer and by the time you've seen it....it's moved much further away.... |
eddycolo:read my post again... I didn't say objects move faster than light(that is impossible).. I said space itself expands faster than light so by the time you see the light from any object,it's much further than the distance the light comes towards you.... |
I've been dead for centuries...a self-fulfilling prophecy.. |
eddycolo:It's quite simple...the answer is relativity...space between objects can expand faster than the speed of light(no law is broken here as space is not an object, merely a gap between objects)......So objects within the universe could be billions of times apart and yet be younger(sorry,older not younger) than the distance... And 20 billion used to be the figure till more data was accumulated that drew into account more variables like dark matter/energy etc... About how the age of the universe was determined, I said they calculated the time it takes light from the furthest galaxies at the edge the universe to reach earth. I didnt mention any bouncing off anything.It's sill the same thing basically, light has to bounce off whatever you see then hit your photosensitive cells... I will like to know how you think they came about this age.Hmmmm...I'd like to point out that my thoughts on the process itself is highly irrelevant(seeing that I'm not an authority on the subject)...but from what I've read it's derived from many things like; The propagation of hydrogen and helium which are the cornerstones for other elements...I.e by fusion reactions and daughter decay processes... The rate at which the universe is expanding....this is known by the doppler effect...when waves are sent towards a body the closer it gets the more compact it appears and the further it is the less compact it is....since light is a wave and the frequency of light red-shifts when receding,then galaxies red-shifting are moving away from us... I can only remember these two....right now I can hardly remember them....and the lack of light to charge here sure doesn't help...so make with these till I can hopefully recharge tomorrow... |
Is it the country where you get burned alive if you're accused of stealing,being a witch,etc... |
Honestly speaking I'm at my village now and they said they've not had light for over 4 months since I last visited and PHCN is demanding #10k from each community for a new transformer. This is a pity....must I have an additional 3 power-banks to the 3 and two laptop chargers I already have? The Ghanaian expressed her point well....we seem to tolerate our lack of basic infrastructure like electricity.. |
Eddycolo you are wrong in that,the age of the universe is established from astronomy to be 13.8 billion years(ranges to 14) and there is no name attributed to the people that hold this view because it's a scientific proposition... It's creationists that invented the word "evolutionist" to compound anything they don't agree with(ranging from biology, to geology, to astronomy) .. Plus the scientific method used to determine that age isn't about how far light bounced off things(although it's part of it) because the visible universe is close to 46 billion light years in radius I.e the radius we can see stuff in the universe...compared to a 13.8 billion year age. |
What a sad story.....since you don't acknowledge a god anymore why not work to be successful on your own.... Beliefs don't give results on their own but it's your actions(which beliefs may/may not motivate) that earn results. |
Funny I watched T.B Joshua claim "god" can overlook tattoos....I guess one of these two sources are either right it completely wrong....OLAADEGBU you decide... |
Atheists and agnostics, Jews and Mormons are among the highest-scoring groups in a 32-question survey of religious knowledge by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life. On average, Americans got 16 of the 32 questions correct. Atheists and agnostics got an average of 20.9 correct answers. Jews (20.5) and Mormons (20.3). Protestants got 16 correct answers on average, while Catholics got 14.7 questions right. How will you do on the quiz? http://m.csmonitor.com/USA/2011/0105/Are-you-smarter-than-an-atheist-A-religious-quiz/When-does-the-Jewish-Sabbath-begin |
OLAADEGBU:I hardly see a distinction that makes evolution a myth seeing it's a scientific study whereas creationism is a perversion of biblical mythology... |
So people weren't gay before the "white men"?...wasn't the bible talking of gay people in regions the "white men" had not yet gone to?... Think well before opening a topic to bash homosexuals...smh ![]() |
An2elect2:Thanks for your pity....now extend that emotion to the pity you'd experience seeing 7+ trillion people burning forever while you watch...and then ask yourself who'll be that evil but still pose as good?...except your god... If god(if such a thing existed) were willing to punish me, knowing the life I've lived and the things i've done for just merely a disbelief then I'd happily take the sentence knowing fully well that I followed the evidence and didn't empty my thinking faculties for such a demented being in the first place... |
OLAADEGBU:Myth |
An2elect2:i wasn't waiting for anyone or anything before I was born so what makes you think I would be doing the same after I die? |
I think boruto may have the byakugan considering that the weilder of the tenseingan has that sort of light lavender eyes.. |
OLAADEGBU:It's like a sphere with no beginning and end( if we're talking about infinity ) but in Christianity there's a supposed beginning for heaven but no end..so it has nothing to compare it to. ..just blind faith as usual ![]() |
An2elect2:Enlighten us please... |
macof:You can't really blame anyone...human beings are very emotional...How best do we lessen our inability to control the events around us if not by some self-perceived "divine power"? |
emrain:deja vu?... lol, if coincidental occurrences are what you mean then I'd say yes...people did fear the repeated natural occurrences like the rising and setting of the sun.. etcetera so much that people were sacrificed as a means to please and try to make sure the sun,rain,harvest,etc is coming back.. some men where consumed by their own curiosity, while few men found a way to invoke and understand the forces of this world. such men were worshipped and these knowledge continued to grow until the emergence of science.How did they "invoke and understand the forces of this world" let alone had the knowledge that such a thing is possible? PS, don't ask me how they found out how they understood nature. unless you want to tell me how men learned that suya is sweeter than raw meat.Ofcourse I can ask how they did....you're the one claiming it as a fact.... And your analogy doesn't follow....meat being sweet is purely preference...some cultures still prefer raw meat...the advent of fire only made most people welcome "warm or hot food" that was chewy and easier to digest... |
emrain:when and how did we create them?....then how did we know such things could be done or how did we get the idea that such a thing was possible... |
