of course, that will be my body.  Anything that makes me "me": personality, etc, will have long since ceased to exist.

Neat fact: During the course of an average adult's life time, they shed near their body weight in skin cells. It's like there a whole 'nother dead you that was sacrificed so that the living you could live.

I suppose that's better than having to molt once a year. Sad

Is that all, or.......can you tell us more?

I can tell you a lot more if you have the popcorn for it. What would you like to explore?

What solace would you offer a grieving father whose son was killed by a drunk driver? What promise of justice for the criminal the law could not prosecute? We can explore what atheism has to offer. What Ra and the ancient Egyptian text can offer. There's always Christ.

Popcorn, lol..no..I'm going to toke a bowl and just smile to myself.  I'd sort of hoped you wouldn't need any prompting to go flying around the moon for me.  After all, how could I know what I wanted to know about what I don't know?  You're the one with the map.   Lemme set the mood.

Moons? Where we're going, we don't need....moons. Got any string?

And while we're on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superstring_theory

Our physical space is observed to have three large spatial dimensions and, along with time, is a boundless four-dimensional continuum known as spacetime. However, nothing prevents a theory from including more than 4 dimensions. In the case of string theory, consistency requires spacetime to have 10 (3+1+6) dimensions. The fact that we see only 3 dimensions of space can be explained by one of two mechanisms: either the extra dimensions are compactified on a very small scale, or else our world may live on a 3-dimensional submanifold corresponding to a brane, on which all known particles besides gravity would be restricted.


And they need better terminology than "dimensions".

I assume you have peer reviewed scientific sources to back up these outrageous claims?

What kind of scientific evidence would you look for, for things outside our observable universe, let alone outside our local space-time region?

I've found corroboration on the rotating torus shape of our "earth realm" (entire physical cosmos) in the CMB radiation. If our observable universe is some tiny spherical region within the torus, there will be an on incoming side and an ongoing side...hemispherical asymmetry,

What kind of evidence? The kind that shows your hypothesis to be most likely true. You need a falsifiable hypothesis as well, by the way. This is how science works.

If you're suggesting there can't be any evidence, then we're kind of done. You're just speculating. Which is fine.

I take it you think they should be called fire/earth/water bubbles instead? What subject are we on, btw, for reference?

I've found tons of evidence so far and am looking for more, was wondering if you had any ideas on where else to look.

I also found evidence in the standard model of particle generation in the 3 densities of quark pairs, plus there anti-pairs, that the universe as a whole will pattern for as found in particle accelerators. 6 types total.

The reason the heavier type's "evaporate" is because we are creating them in a region of the universe that does not specifically pattern for them. Our region is an inner most region and traveling (as a rotating ring) slower through the Higgs field than the outer regions that surround it. Like on a wheel, the circle of the hub is traveling slower through space that the outer wheel. E=mc^2. The heavier quarks occur in the regions traveling faster.

Metric or standard tons? Also, if you don't mind, the equipment used for measurement?

RE: Afterlife
Evidence for what? What is your testable, falsifiable hypothesis?

"The universe as a whole" sounds like an extrapolation at best, and a fallacy of composition at worst.

Is it the offering that's important...because delivery seems to count for something.  At least, in this atheists book. There's always people offering -something- in christ's name..sure.......I hear you can get a genuine prayer mat for a reasonable price.

I wouldn't make too much of all that offering lest people notice the base affrontary of christian carrion seeking, if I were a christian.

Gotta pick a side people. Science or pseudo-science. Modelling reality or saying lots of scientific sounding words and making fallacious arguments.
