    Interesting video I found on youtube which debunks the claims made by no planers that Flight 175 speed and impact was impossible http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f8IiQMjf3U

    why a god is impossible

    hi Nearly every religion posits some sort of hidden, immaterial realm which exists behind the visible, physical, and material realm in which we live. Often we are supposed to be partaking in this immaterial realm because who we "really" are is defined by an immaterial, immortal soul. This...

    German court says love spell "objectively impossible"

    In Germany, a woman bought a love spell from a witch. When it failed to work, she sued. "A love ritual is not suited to influence a person from long distance," the court said. "As the promised service could not be rendered, the plaintiff is not obligated to pay." (Darn, I seem unable to post...

    Is it impossible for a theist to understand atheists?

    I can't help noticing that whenever a theist attempts to explain atheists or their point of view...it comes out absolutely horribly inaccurate. It's obviously 'possible' for there to a theist who really understands atheists, but do they realistically exist? I think most atheists were raised...

    speed of light is not impossible

    we should learn from the past. people thought flying in machines were imposible just because it seemed so. Fact is, the light travels from one point to another. It is just speed, no matter what you think. The speed of light just seems to be the Fastest there is. using the speed of light as a...

    Impossible to travel half the speed of light?

    If it is impossible to travel faster then the speed of light, then it must also be impossible to travel faster than half the speed of light because of the following . . . If A travels away from “static” position B faster than half the speed of light, and C travels away from B faster than half...

    Will anyone defend the idea that most unexplained phenomena are a priori impossible?

    It seems an utterly stupid idea to me, but (if turtle and Interesting Ian can be relied on, which is a big "if") apparently some people (though turtle and Interesting Ian can't or won't say who) believe that "most unexplained phenomena are a priori impossible". Anyway, if anyone does believe...

    Why is the Supernatural Impossible?

    Hypothetically, lets say someone writes a biography about the life of Yahweh - lets say some of the details included lots of unusual events (bending spoons with my mind, communicating with spirits, healing lepers with my magic touch, etc.). Most skeptics are going to be disinclined to believe...

    An Impossible Coin Flip?

    This is a quote from Leonard Susskind (theoretical physicist): This sounds interesting but what actually is Susskind trying to say? Is he saying that it could not possibly happen (even though he can't prove it)? Surely there is some chance that it could happen? Does anyone have any...

    MISSION IMPOSSIBLE

    Mr. Randi I have spotted the logical trap in your exercise. An "exercise to demonstrate that it is not possible to sort out pseudoscientific gibberish from purposely invented gibberish." As I doubt that the makers of the device in question have actually conducted any sort of study of anything...

    Why I Think an Afterlife is Impossible

    At least an infinite afterlife. Living forever... Anything that's created seems to die, or at least is subject to time. To be "timeless" as shown in near-death experiences, you would have to be without creation... Then why are we alive? We were here forever, and then we were born and then...

    god is impossible

    Lifted from infidelguy.com PERFECTION/CREATION INCOHERENCE ARGUMENT 1.) God, by definition, is a perfect being. 2.) God, by definition, deliberately created the universe. 3.) So, if God were to exist, then he would be a perfect being who deliberately created something. 4.) To be perfect, one...

    Why it may be impossible to live forever

    I was thinking about this while I was taking a shower and I was thinking. Nothing man made can last forever. It would inevitably degrade. The only solution would be to transmit yourself into a universe where time has no meaning. The problem is that you would 'contaminate' that universe...
