    I'm sure they have....

    But my Mrs [highly religious] is very tolerant of me, and reckons there is a place for me up there.

    I don't think anyone does that. Everyone carries the baggage of their past experience. It is one of the reasons you can quote, even recognized theorists over time and find apparent contradictions. We all always look at a problem from we we are standing.

    I've been confused by this moderation style for quite awhile. It seems not everybody is subject to the precedent sock puppets get permanently banned along with their creator. They're good moderators at this site just none in the physics and math threads. It's pretty clear that Alphanumeric and Prometheus have other stuff to do. JamesR told me to complain to them a couple of weeks ago. LOL. Maybe they should take a peek at how Ben the Man handled ending his moderator status. If a moderator can't discuss the subject matter at a high level then they're pretty much useless in my estimation. So who posts here that is capable of discussion at the highest level on every subject they've addressed. Gee I wonder. LOL. How about Aqueous Id and rpenner. Both brilliant with a 'huge' education. I know it's not fair for me to bring that up but.... I've been thinking about it for awhile. The idea the sock puppet criticized Id's math and physics knowledge means he would be better suited for a trip to the woodshed.

    Maybe some of the posters come here just to argue/debate. If all the issues were resolved, what would they do with all that spare time.

    What if you don't like it there, are you stuck there forever? That would really suck, eh? What temperature do you figure it is there, 72 degrees Fahrenheit? No food? No Toilets? Can't see, hear, feel, smell, or taste as you do now, so how will you recognize all the past loved one's that you're going to be reunited with? Will you all live in separate...spaces??? Maybe Heaven to you is just some make believe magical place that needs not be questioned? It just stands to reason that it's a great place!!! (rolls eyes)

    I wonder if Santa delivers to Heaven? Things that make you go...Bwahahahahahahaha

    You mean some of the posters are trolling the discussion? Maybe they could use the spare time to learn something about the topics they're trolling with illiterate nonsense.

    I have trouble myself with misconceptions of time. You should hear some of the things my girlfriend says to me about my time keeping habits.

    You're a moron and you're delusional because I never admitted to any such thing. Stop taking acid, or buzzing aerosol, sniffing the glue or whatever it is that is making you hallucinate and read things that no one has ever said.

    You're probably thinking about what you're working on while trying to listen to her at the same time. I still can't get the hang of that.

    So when you said:
    So she doesn't really tolerate you? Do you want to go to Heaven or not?

    The domain of applicability for this thread is the ring singularity between your butt cheeks. It's pretty obvious the natural phenomena we associate with time is well behaved on the Riemann manifold but is very difficult to model in the domain where the Riemann manifold no longer applies. Domain of applicability. Anytime you're discussing a theoretical model you need to understand what that means. It's called physics. You went on and on about how ignorant 'we all are' for not believing quantum gravity can be modeled on the Riemann manifold. Pretty much what you said though I doubt you have the intellectual capacity to understand. The 'I work with difficult equations' comment was comical.

    I'm fairly confident that what I said was understandable for the vast majority.
    But to dumb it down further.....My Mrs, being a true Christian, [in the real sense of the word] tolerates my Agnostic/Atheistic outlook.
    Is that really as difficult to understand as you imply?

    So that is a NO to the Heaven deal. You are with me then, that Heaven's as ridiculous as Santa and the Easter Bunny.

    I'm glad we can agree on that, because for a minute there I thought you believed in superstitious BS.
