magicwatch comments on Apr 7, 2018:

Darwin cooncept of propogating the species, NOT God, or Religion, but because sex with someone else spreads the distribution of Genes, porn is the modern equivilant of this, as marriage was and is invented by the concept of god., makes no sense genetically

Bienvenido, you are correct, most people on this site are from the USA, and probably don't know where Europe is , having said that, im not too familiar with the Aga Khan, other than a title given to an describes the Aga Khan as one of the world's ten richest royals with an estimated net worth of US$800 million . Additionally he is unique among the richest royals as he does not rule over a geographic territory. Among the goals the Aga Khan has said he works toward are the elimination of global poverty; the promotion and implementation of secular pluralism; the advancement of the status of women; and the honouring of Islamic art and architecture . Well, with that sort of money, you could achive a lot,

How do you measure soul?

magicwatch comments on Apr 4, 2018:

The 21 grams experiment refers to a scientific study published in 1907 by Duncan MacDougall, a physician from Haverhill, Massachusetts. MacDougall hypothesized that souls have physical weight, and attempted to measure the mass lost by a human when the soul departed the body. .........THEY PROBABLY JUST FARTED.

I like to equate God to the square root of minus one. (Gd=root -1) Why?

magicwatch comments on Apr 3, 2018:

By applying the same logic, we can disprove Santa Claus, Fairies and the tooth fairy, ...and any other "imagined thing" . What is it that you equate mathematically? the square root of minus 1 is I (pronounced as ioata).it is an imaginary number. It's an imaginary number, "i". Since no number times itself ever results in a negative number, there can be no answers to a square root of a negative number. do not understand why you equate god to a mathematical problem, has no meaning combing the two?

Greetings Science Peeps!! I watch a lot of science shows, talks and what-not.

magicwatch comments on Apr 3, 2018:

There is no centre of the universe! According to the standard theories of cosmology, the universe started with a "Big Bang" about 14 thousand million years ago and has been expanding ever since. there is no centre to the expansion; it is the same everywhere.as all points in space are simultaneos in all directions. therefore there is no measurable boundry, therefore no "shape" .... that is you could look into sace from the edge of the universe, and it wouldd still look the same. The elephant in the room here is "time" time is not restricted by the speed of light, because it has no mass.

magicwatch comments on Mar 30, 2018:

This is the Santaa Claus argument, where because he only exists if you believe in him, however it can not be proven that he does or does not exist, he onlly exists as a figment of imagination, so he does exist IF you belive in him in your mind. most people grow out of this believe but what the heck, its a free country. ????
