OK, so I came here thinking this was going to be just like any other atheist forum. Napoleon tried to clue me into the fact that it wasn't, but I'm an arrogant SOB so I basically dismissed his claim.
Anywho, here's the thing. I've noticed there are a lot of people here who are either physicists or know a great deal about the field. I, on the other hand, read some of these threads and feel like I've got an IQ of about -12.
So, what I'd like from you lovely people is to point me in the direction of some essential reading on physics. Now, I feel I need to point a few things out first. Whilst I am far from stupid, due to a childhood illness I have absolutely zero academic education. Virtually everything I know, I taught myself. So, with that in mind, I will be needing to start with baby steps. We're talking lying on my belly until I work out how to crawl.
If it helps to ease your mind that you won't be wasting your time; in every I do, within months of 'getting it' I excel beyond anyone in that area.
Thank you in advance.
