  • Could energy be “god” ?
    ThanksBenj96

    Noether's (Nöther's) theorem merely speaks of the relation between symmetries and conservation laws. If a translation in time leaves the system unchanged (time translation symmetry) then energy is conserved. Likewise momentum is conserved if a system is symmetric wrt translation in space. Even conservation of charge because of an underlying symmetry.

    Not believing in god is superstition. It is an irrational belief.

    Do you really think we treat robots likes slaves? That presupposes robots experience. But they don't. You cojld ask how I know but I know...

    Why do they need to be like God? What is your concept of "God"?

    Because they put themselves in his place.

    Makes sense. Although... If being experiences the being of being inside of the being experiencing the being of tbe being outside the being of being of being than it simply doesn't make sense anymore to say "to be or not to be". :lol:

    Sorry. I expresses myself wrongly. They should accept that other people have god(s). They are of course free not to belive that and see themselves as gods. But then they are no gods anymore.

    "Your brain might not work exactly like a computer but a computer has enough complexity to reflect the workings of the brain"

    Not exactly? Exactly not! Enough complexity? Not even a zillionth!

    Arent that atheists? A true humanist should accept gods too as there are a lot of humans who belive in god. I belive in gods too. I know in fact for sure they exist. How else came the world to be? You could of course argue that the universe is eternal. That is true. Anyhow, Im thankfull to the gods but tell them to f@@@k off if tbey try to invade my life. Makes that a humanist of me?

    I that case, Google is not my friend. Not everything there is to find makes sense. Unless tatologies make sense. You just cant take a force and impress it. The impression *is* the force. But I know what you mean.

    If someone robs you and justifies it with “I don’t want to live honestly because I don’t want to. I don’t think about others in that case” would you think this is a reasonable justification? Is he in the right now? Should he not be punished?

    Soeone robbing me wants it. Do you compare me with a robber?
    So actually I want to take it. But I just say that I diont want?

    "know I’m a hypocrite and irrational. You can be mad at me but I won’t do anything about it”

    Where did I write that? I wrote that people who are nonvaccinated demanding treatment for their covid19 infection afterwards are hypocrites. I didnt say I demand it. Im not irrational. The reason I don't want it is because I dont want it. I dont think about others in that case. So? Should I be forced to think about others? I think about others. They can do whatever they want. Take the juice or not.

    "The recalcitrants"

    If there is anything that pi... makes me recalcitrant then it is this presumptious and prejudicious use of language. Im not "a recacitrant". Im just a human being with things he wants and things he doesn't.

    "And what do WE learn..."

    Sticking to a group. Always safe. And cowardly.

    "Newton spoke of forces - little pushes and pulls delivered by corpuscular objects. "

    That was LeSage. Newton couldn't explain gravity and disagreed stringly with corpuscules. You can compare them somehow with gravitons in modern views on gravity though the corpuscules werd calculated to be non-existent. Gravitons are quantum particles and behave very differently from their classical counterparts.

    "They" are the vaccinated.

    People who dont wanna take the vaccine (untill now still me) and then, when ill, wanna get treatment are hypocrites. But still people. On who you can get mad. People are irrational. You have to live with that. Nkn-vaccinated getting ill should be treated too, if they want. But if a vaccinated gets ill too he or she must be treated firstly.
  • Anti-vaccination: Is it right?


    Isnt it possible that people getting mad at non-vaccinators (and hinestly, I must get one if I wanna go to my family in Italy) are getting mad maybe because they are afraid of infecting them? So they cant give them a hug anymore?

    Nice example. Would I get infected if I were the only non-vaccinated? But what arguments a vaccinated person can have to make me vaccinate if I dont want it. You can say you just refuse because you want to excercise your self decision right. And indeed, that is the reason. No one can make me. Even if that means I get ill. Call that stupid. The decision is not based on anything other than that I dint want it. So what? Its my life.

  • Anti-vaccination: Is it right?


    Thats exactly the negative attitude I meant. Why should I be a dummy for not wanting something. I just dont want it. And I not wanna be saved by the same system that is responsible for the virus emerging and soteading in the first place.
  • Anti-vaccination: Is it right?
    byJanus

    I dont say that the chances that I get infected by a non vaccinated one are smaller. These are bigger indeed. But the chances a vaccinated one making me sick are bigger than me making them sick.
  • Anti-vaccination: Is it right?

    Do you think I dont know whats in a seringe? Im not going to any hospital ever. I dont trust medical science. In general. Unless my leg is broken or if I need methadone. Or my eyes need scars (I did radial keratotomy). Or whatever I do trust.But not for a cure against corona. That would be hypocritical indeed. For a gunshot I would certainly gi.
