Homosexuality is caused by your environment, If you go to an all girl school all your life I'm pretty sure you're going to be gay. Plus not only do they not want to be "cured" they are also happy with themsleves and are productive so why "cure" them? You're just try to control their lives leave them alone.

Our star isn't going to implode, it's just going to burn out, like a coal on fire. It burns then leaves a smoldering white rock. A supernova only accurs if the star is big enough to become a red supergiant.

If you're thinking of looking at a body in 4 dimensions, you have to have the 4th dimension be something. Is it your age? Your location? You location in space-time? We ony have 3 dimensions that can determine our size. Period. Length, Width, Hight. You could have the 4th dimension be density?
I'm thinking about the dimensions of "direction" or, what you could call it.
There are only 3 directions. A 4 dimensional body would look just like a normal body, there is no "4th dimension" in your case. Like I said before the 4th dimension would just be some variable.

I used to try to think of dimensions like you are, three absolute directions, until I started learning C and got into the higher math levels in school.

Here is how I can explain spacetime. OK, here is the twins paradox. One twin on earth, one twin goes on spaceship and speeds away at a speed near the speed of light, c. Both are the same age. When the twin comes back, his twin is older than he is because his time was "slowing down".

You can graph his journey on a space-time graph.
User posted image

A path through a space-time graph is called a world line. Nothing can pass the light world line, because you would have to go faster than c. The stationary twins world line does not go anywhere along the x axis because he isn't moving anywhere. The speeding twin's line is going at a small angle to the light world line because he is going at a speed NEAR c away from his stationary twin. It curves back because he turns around.

This is almost impossible for me to explain in a forum, you just have to research this stuff more. Use books instead of the internet, they are way better.

We can imagine anything, that's the power of the human mind. I am imagining something that is 7-SEVEN-dimensional right now. All you do is apply a variable to each dimension.

My seven-dimensional clock:
Length
Width
Hight
Color
Time-setting
Loudness
Maker

Programming helps you greatly if you have trouble thinking of more than 3 dimensions, think of arrays that have like 20 dimensions WHEW! A dimension is just a variable.

I think it's wrong to say "I'm going to CURE a gay person" they don't want to be cured, they want to be gay! It's what they want so leave them alone it's not a problem to be solved from your point of view.

Now I'm not for or against gay people, I just think they should be able to do what they want. I look at gay men as ugly girls anyways. :nuts:

I wouldn't use wiki as my end all source for this.

This is VERY, VERY hard to explain so bear with me.

Imagine space time as a grid of clocks that extends on forever, with the clocks at all the grid interesctions. An observer is located at the origin with a master clock and sends out a synchronization pulse at t = 0. (t is time) The pulse takes time r/c to reach any clock from the origin, where r is the distance from the master and c is the speed of light. So any clock would read r/c as it's time the instant the pulse reaches it. This method of clock synchronization assumes that the speed of light is the same value in all directions of all inertial frames. The procedure also concerns an event recorded by and observer in ONE SPECIFIC inertial frame. An observer in another inertial frame (or location) would have to be assigned different space-time coordinates to events being observed by using another coordinate grid of clocks.
In relativistic mechanics the distance between two points depend of the frame of reference in which they are measured. In relativistic mechanics there is no such thing as absolute length or time, it all depends where an observer is IN the spacetime when he/she observes it. Also, events at different locations that are observed to occur simultaneously in one frame are not observed to be simultaneous in another frame moving uniformly past the first.

In other words, from the observer in the procedure above, all the clocks would appear synchronized, but to an observer at another location along the grid they wouldn't be. I think, or something like that..ow my braaiin.

Was that too confusing?

No, I believe it was only the future. Because going at the speed of light stops time for you. Go to the future by going fast away from earth and then coming back again.

Ripples in a pond fade away because there is friction. If there was a pond in space (?) and there were ripples they would go on forever, bouncing back and forth. The univers's speed has ovecome the gravitational pull of the rest of the universe, hence why it is accelerating. Therefore there will never be enough gravity to pull it all back.

edit: Hmm I'm not sure about the pond in space thing. But since waves represent energy in motion I would guess it's correct.

Speed is velocity. Velocity is the relation of distance/time.
It's infinitely flat because a line is flat, and it's just a line curved around to itself.

I made up an interesting but outlandish theory afew weeks ago when I was reading about time dilation. But it's more of a question really.

According to time dilation, time appears to slow when an object that is moving is observed from a stationary point of view. All of the matter in the universe is moving, so everything that is moving as a certain entropy rate over a period of relative time. If the universe wasn't moving, would everything that could possibly happen in infinite time happen instantly? As if our speed through the cosmos has an effect on the rate at which we decay.

Think about it, we are speeding around a planet, which is orbiting a sun, which is orbiting around our galaxy, which is moving in whatever direction that our cluster is moving. If the bubble theory is correct and there are more universes, we might be moving even faster then! If we somehow came to a complete stop in the universe, everything would almost instantly be...well, done.

That's what I like about these threads, they don't have anything to do with anything once you go back to the real site.

As for being american, I am both happy and sorry I was born here. I'm happy because it's easy as shit to survive in the US, but I'm sorry for the same reason. I don't have a very good work ethic, which I wish I did, and I procrastinate, and I don't concentrate very hard at school. If I were born in another (not like iraq or the congo or something hehe) country I wouldn't have these problems most likely.

Seventh: Yeah I changed my opinion because when people start flaming my country I get a little defensive, but now that I think about it, you other nations have all the right in the world to hate us, to an extent.

We are in Iraq for oil. Our government thinks we can "change the iraqis for the better. Democracy!!" What we really are doing is preparing to control them so we can control their oil. Another reason why I hate our country. We are using up our PLANET'S recources by driving FUCKING HUMMERS? Why the FUCK would ANYONE want to drive a vehicle that gets 4 miles to the gallon? SUV'S? WTF?! The gas mileage of the vehicles americans drive is obscene. That's why I stick with cars that have a minimum of 30+ mpg, or I ride a bike. Bullshit. I take back everything I said before about the US besides it being a nice place to live. We suck.

I'm not saying that I don't care, I'm saying why would you care what happens in the US if you aren't living here. What difference does it make to complain about a country you don't live in. Seventh, what country are you from? What are we doing that affects you?

I try not to think about people dying, it brings you down emotionally, which is why I "eat my breakfast" the same way everyday, because I'm not thinking about it. Why do that? There is nothing I can do to prevent it from happening, so I just don't waste time pondering it just to make myself depressed.

I just don't understand why someone living in another country would hate us. Why huh? Answer THAT question. Give me a logical answer, WHY the fuck do you hate us. It comes down to this, our country is a great place to live, with little worries, just because you don't like your country, doesn't mean you should hate on other ones.

For those of you who hate the U.S...why would you hate a country anyway. Because the people there have better and easier lives? We aren't doing anything that effects you, so just shut the fuck up and go back to you land of unopportunity, or you can accept the fact that you want what we have and immigrate. Sure our government may suck, but it doesn't really affect your living here that much. All of these reasons that you all say you hate the U.S are really minute, and nobody here really cares about them. Seems like other countries blow everything out of proportion. So what if we keep going to war with whoever, I still get up and eat my breakfast the same as I always do.

Most of the "stupid people" you talk of are just that, stupid people. (soccer moms, mexicans) You will rarely see or talk to one of the MANY genious people that live here. Don't say that america is stupid just because you've seen a few dumb people.

China IS the future. My friends think I'm crazy, but I know I'm right, and I know they will grow up to be the stupid people you talk about. And these stupid people will run the country and make us do stupid things. I plan to move to taiwan to get away from the U.S.
